The title of this article can't possibly be correct. In patronymics, "mac" is always followed by a genitive, and "Cú Brettan" is nominative. It should probably be "Blathmac mac Con Brettain". I'll try and find a cite, and then move the article. --Nicknack009 (talk) 12:25, 2 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

According to this list of scholarly articles, the correct form would be "Blathmac mac Con Brettan". I'll make the change. --Nicknack009 (talk) 12:34, 2 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
