I have a bit of a silly question for all of ye. I have a friend who resides in Dublin (Dun Laoghaire), and we've been having a discussion regarding his name, Paul Saran Carroll. Can anyone out there in CELT-land tell me the meaning/origin of Saran? The most we can come up with is that it was probably a Saint's name. Curiously, -Lorelei

Probably comes from his grandfather Mr. Saran Wrap. 8*) Sorry I just couldn't pass it up. All kiding aside I think keVin has a book of Celtic names and the origins. Come on now keVin lets not be bashful, help the lass out. paddy | |||||

Yup, and his maternal grand father was Al (Luminum) Foyle, a Derry man. ;-) I closest I found was the surname Saurin, which is believed to be an anglicized Irish name, from what root I don't know. -george |
