Hi there... am I right in thinking that Duneane is derived from the Irish "Dun Ean?   If so, should it be pronounced Dooneen, or Doonayn ?

  • Dear Duneane:

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out and many thanks for your query to the message board.

    According to www.logainm.ie  (placenames database), the name of Duneane appears to sound like Dunayne, although it is spelled as Duneane. 

    Here is the link:
