Res: [tied] legendary genealogies

Here's an example from Ireland, Some of them look
recognizble --I'm guessing Lamhfionn is "White Arm"
(vel sim.) but names like Heber, Beouman, Agnan,
Heremon, etc. seem odd, After Mile Espaine and the
supposed invasion, the names starting looking more
recognizable. Are some of the 1st names supposed to be
parodies of foreign names or are they really from
Gaelic?
