    Columba's more common name(as seen closer to his OWN day) is Colum Chille ("Dove of the Church"). I studied his theology in my undergrad history degree final research paper/project.

    Colum Cille was the Gaeiic name, Columba the Latin one.
    See Mael Coluim and Malcolm (MacCallum) Clan and Columba.


    The Columcille leaving Balley Castle, N. Ireland for Scotland on St. Columba's Day, 2003. Yours truly #1 Starboard oar!

    Since I am a Cajun "by the ring and by the back door", and Scottish by heritage, hence cajunscot.
