This is one of the Academy's earliest reports. We are not confident that these early reports are accurate. Please use it with caution.

Greetings,

Here's the information we found on the name "Conmaol O'Maolmhoicheirghe" as used between 1000 and 1400.

Our sources show that "Conmaol" was an "early" name (1), which implies that it was used from about 500-700 and later fell out of use. You could either adopt an earlier-period persona or find a different given name.

If you adopt an earlier persona, you should modify the form of your patronymic to an early form as well--the correct form is <unknown at this time>.

If you are interested in another name for a persona from 1000-1300, we recommend "Irish Names" by O'Corrain and Maguire. It contains a number of names with some information about them; if you avoid names that are described as being "early," "late," or "modern" you can be confident of getting a name which is appropriate to your persona.

Tangwystl verch Morgant Glasvryn and Arval D'Espas Nord helped with this name.

We hope this has been helpful. If you need further assistance, please let us know.

In service,
Alan Fairfax
