Turning towards the next part of the name &#8220;bean Conall&#8221;  bean could  have meant wife  but also in some cases  lady of  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.libraryireland.com\/names\/women\/bean-mhidhe-benvy.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">for example<\/a>.   Going with that I went with lady (or scion) of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/place\/Donegal-county-Ireland#ref150824\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Conall<\/a>.  Turning to the last part of the name &#8220;meic Bradaigh&#8221;  This is certainly seems like a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tribstar.com\/community\/be-aware-of-patronymic-prefixes-when-researching\/article_acd5184e-81c0-51b4-925d-9cc1a0814f80.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">patronymic <\/a>(I.e. derived from a person&#8217;s father&#8217;s first name).  Meic from my research was often son of  so likely this would have been suggested as Mhic (daughter of) if the name is registered. But no matter, still is a nice form for daughter of Braidaigh(Brady).   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I often try to personalize scroll texts to the recipient, while keeping withing style, so someone who is pleasent and the scion of a Irish king (Conall) would certainly help people.
