Liam means a strong-willed warrior and protector. It is the short form of the Irish name Uilliam, which comes from the Frankish Willahelm. It is also the Irish cognate of the name William. There are different names from around the world which mean queen, such as: Thema, Theresa, Victoria, and Tiana. What is the Irish name for grace? The Cailleach – the old, wise healer – is a multifaceted personification of the female cosmic agency. Irish mythological, historical and folkloric expressions cast her as the expression of the territorial- and tribal-sovereignty queen and as the life force inherent in nature, nurturing and maternal but also terrifying and destructive.O'Shea of Iveragh (now represented by the descendants of Martin Archer Shee, the noted 19th-century portrait artist) After King Mark learns of the secret love affair between Tristan and Iseult, he banishes Tristan to Brittany, never to return to Cornwall. There, Tristan is placed in the care of Hoel of Brittany after receiving a wound. He meets and marries Hoel's daughter, Iseult Blanchmains (Iseult "of the White Hands"), because she shares the name of his former lover. They never consummate the marriage because of Tristan's love for Iseult of Ireland. This name means "slim and fair" or "slender," deriving from the Gaelic word for slender, which is ‘caol.’

This name comes from the older Gaelic form “Derdriu.” The meaning is possibly derived from the Celtic word for woman. In Irish legend, Dierdre was the name of a tragic character who died of a broken heart after Conchobar, the King of Ulster, killed her lover Naoise. 50. Eithne (enya) Farmer, David (1992).

Ciara – a Co. Tipperary saint Le Vin herbé is not an opera, it’s a “secular oratorio”, composed by the Swiss composer Frank Martin between 1938 and 1941 for 25 chorus members, eight soloists, two violins, two violas, two cellos, a double bass and a piano. It’s an interpretation of the medieval legend of Tristan and Iseult, the tale of adultery between a Cornish knight and an Irish princess in which love and death embrace. Martin was at pains, as Michael Tanner points out in his excellent programme essay, not to be compared with Wagner – which in itself invites comparisons.
