Actually, the prfix Kil- is either an anglicisation of the Irish for "church" (cill) or the Irish for "wood" (coill), and you need to know the Irish word to decide which.


This is what comes of a religious education-the only examples I could dig out of my memory were related to towns near old monastic foundations-Kildare, Kilkenny. And if I were Eric, I'd go for Balc Wood, sounds even better frankly...

"Practically all small states, no matter whether they are republics or monarchies, prosper merely by reason of the fact that they are small; that all the citizens know and watch over one another; that the leaders can see for themselves the evil that is being done, the good they have to do; and that their orders are carried out before their eyes."
