Later, when Gaelic overtook that language of the Strathcylde Britons the name became half-translated into Gaelic as Ceann Caith (pronounced KyAN KAY). Later, of course, this was anglicised into Kincaid.
You were kind enough to provide this information for me.

I am happy to announce that the Clan Kincaid website is finally up and running at http://www.clan-kincaid.org, and that you are credited at the top of the History page. Thanks again!
