OT: Actually, Lars, the Vikings once had a strong presence in the British Isles after the collapse of the Roman empire. (There's even a Viking Museum in the city of York that tells all about it.) A lot of place names in northern Scotland are Scandinavian in origin. In fact, I'm told, that on Shetland Island the natives speak their English with a lilt. I don't think it would be that far fetched to think that historical Irish names could have some Scandinavian influence.
