Talk:List of longest placenames in Ireland

message: Pace logainm.ie, most of the 35 minor features it says are in the townland of Waterdale are not visible on the OSI 25-inch map; they are in the OSI map of Oghil for which logainm lists only one minor feature. jnestorius(talk) 20:17, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

message: The joke is that "Inch" is the shortest placename in Ireland; meaning not Inch, County Clare or Inch, County Wexford but inch. Has anyone citable come up with a real candidate? Ox Mountains is arguably two letters, as are Bo Hill, Bo Island, Go Island. The Vee might be spelt V. For settlements my money is on Emo, County Laois and Nad, County Cork. jnestorius(talk) 18:55, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

text: Two names that are each arguably one letter are  Wood of O, County Offaly and The V, County Waterford. Every "Iona Road" is "Bóthar Í", but I don't know how many Americans consider "H Street" to be a short name. jnestorius(talk) 09:55, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Shortest placename 

message: Among townlands in logainm.ie, the longest Irish word seems to be in An Fhionnchoillteach (17 letters; Finkiltagh, Co. Antrim).  jnestorius(talk) 20:52, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Longest Irish word in a placename 

message: Galway Public Library's Placenames of Galway includes scans of John O'Donovan's field notebooks from the Ordnance Survey. He was the most important person in recommending anglicized spellings of Gaelic topnyms. I've processed the (incomplete) parish lists and found the following 20-letter candidates. Donovan's directions allowed me to find two on the OS first-edition map; one is eligible, the other not.
