Coire Dhó

Blaikie notes several variations on the name: "Coiraghoth, as it is spelt by Glenaladale, is a phonetic rendering of the Gaelic Coiredhogha, the last three letters of which are silent, or pronounced as a grunt, while the ‘dh’ has a guttural sound. It means the corry of the river Doe, of which the stream of the Coire Mheadhoin is an affluent. Home spells it Corado (H. H. 253), and Mr. Ross calls it Corriegoe" (Itinerary, p. 61).
