Ach’ na craoibh mór & beag; Achadh na Crıthe mor; Achadh na Crıthe beag: Robertson

Achnacree, in Gaelic Acha(dh)na-cri’e, might, farther north, be explained as Achadh-na-craoibhe, ‘tree-field.’ But in Lorn the bh of craobh will not vocalise so readily. The name is Achadh-na-crithe, ‘quaking field.’: Book Review, Donald Mackinnon, Celtic Review, 90
