Notes on Gaelic Titles
Eòghann Càthach Eòghann Càthach / Ewin of the Battles K2; Eoghain Cathach / Ewin of the Battles KK; Ewan Cauch JK; Ewin Caich JKA. Ewen of the Battles. Actually càthach is an adjective – the name is not *Eoghann nan cath. Angus MacKay’s English translation is perhaps influenced by An Spaidearachd Bharrach which also runs noun + adjective but is rendered ‘The Pride of Barra’.
