Mac is a prefix, not a suffix. It is a word in itself too but seeing it as a suffix would be an exception rather than a rule. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.45.239.4 (talk) 15:06, 19 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

It is also a noun, so could be in either position of a compound. But Celtic compounds are generally head initial. So it really shouldn't mean "son of...". It could be a 'headless' compound, something like "having a charioteer for a son" but that seems like an odd name to me.Johundhar (talk) 10:57, 25 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

I think some sources would be nice... it's one thing to hear that the "impure son" meaning isn't able to be correct for date reasons, but another to see proof. For that matter, some links to the various other meanings of corb wouldn't hurt. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.71.28.227 (talk) 08:54, 25 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
