Of course, what with "Glen" being the common word for a valley, and valleys being the predominant spot for villages, it could very well mean that place from which they came.
Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, Glenmorangie -- all brands named for their locations.. could we be Scotch immigrants?Maybe some kind of bastardized name for wanderers?What with the mix of many cultures (Irish, English, French, Scotch, Roman, etc.) it may not really be of ancient origins.
Just a few suggestions, dad.
