Hoyne, Mícheál, “On the origin of the surname element Mág”, Ériu 70 (2020): 83–93.
- journal article
This paper seeks to explain how Mac (gen. sg./nom. pl. Meic) became Mág (gen. sg./nom. pl. Méig) in some surnames. It is argued that the form Mág/Méig was already in existence in the Middle Irish period, though this is obscured by contemporary orthographical practice.
