[Allt Baile Bhoidhich] The termination "ich" to this word is not given by "McLeod" and is therefore left
an open question and an exception to the Rule, - He gives Bòideach, a Bute man. gen. [genitive] - Bòideich [(92)] and Bracuirneach, Dusky; (Gen) [Genitive] Bracuirneich (adj) [adjective]
each of pollysyllables is always changed into -ich in the genitive singular
[Allt Achadh dà Mhillein] Would it not be better to shorten this name and write Allt dà mhillein?
