The names in this list are extracted from Liam Price's The Place-Names of Co. Wicklow: The Barony of Ballinacor North and The Place-Names of Co. Wicklow: The Barony of Ballinacor South (Dublin: Dublin Institue for Advanced Studies, 1945-46). The majority of Price's citations are from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. In this short article, we focus just on the pre-1600 citations, and those citations which come from Latin- and English-language documents. Most of the entries did not contain any examples drawn from Gaelic documents; those which do exist we have omitted.
