Fionn mac Cumhaill
Fionn mac Cumhaill ( ; (:ˈfʲin̪ˠ mˠakˠ ˈkuːw̃əlːʲ);〔Northern Irish: (:ˈfʲin̪ˠ mˠakˠ ˈkuːw̃əlːʲ); Western Irish: ; Southern Irish: .〕 ), sometimes transcribed in English as Finn MacCool or Finn MacCoul, was a mythical hunter-warrior of Irish mythology, occurring also in the mythologies of Scotland and the Isle of Man. The stories of Fionn and his followers the Fianna, form the Fenian Cycle (''an Fhiannaíocht''), much of it narrated in the voice of Fionn's son, the poet Oisín.
"Fionn" means "blond", "fair", "white", or "bright". The hero's childhood name was Deimne (; (:dʲeβ̃nʲi)),〔Northern Irish: ; Southern Irish: 〕 literally "sureness" or "certainty", also a name that means a young male deer; several legends tell how he gained the name Fionn when his hair turned prematurely white. The name Fionn is related to the Welsh name Gwyn, as in the mythological figure Gwyn ap Nudd, and to the continental Celtic Vindos, a form of the god Belenus.
The 19th-century Irish revolutionary organisation known as the Fenian Brotherhood took its name from these legends. The Scottish form of his name, Fingal , comes from a retelling of the legends in epic form by the 18th-century poet James Macpherson.
