GREENAN.—There are 27 Townlands named GREENAN, in Irish grianan from grian, "the sun". This word has various meanings. According to Dr. O'Donovan's supplement to O'Reilly's Dictionary, it signifies— I. "A beautiful sunny spot". 2. "A bower" or "summer house." 3. "A balcony" or "gallery", and 4. "A royal palace". It is in the last sense that it is generally found in Irish topographical names, as the "Grianan of Aileach" in County Donegal. The word grianan also occurs in the Gaelic of Scotland, as in Grenan, "a sunny place" Bute. In Manx the word for "sunny" is grianagh or grianey, as in Ballagraney, " sunny farm."
