A Quick Overview Of Mac Cionaoith
Mac Cionaoith Pronunciation
The information of the net is limited, and this is what I've managed to find out: Mac Cionaoith, which may also be spelled Mac Cionnaith is the Gaelic spelling of an Irish surname which is pronounced variously as McKenna, McKenny, McKinney, and may be spelled McKennagh or MacKinnie among other variations.
Cionaodh or Cionaoth are two possible traditional spellings for 'Kenneth'.
Update from a Scottish friend:
"It looks like McKenneth to me...it refers to being descended from Kenneth McAlpin.. the first recognised king of Dalriada (Scotland)..he was an Ulsterman...so the name is both Irish and Scottish..the spelling you give (Mac Cionaoith) is Irish!"
