Name and heritage

The parish of Kirkgunzeon in southwest Scotland was called Kirkwynnin in 1200.
William J. Watson states that the name appears to combine kirk with the Welsh form of Finnén, an affectionate name for Findbarr of Moyville, also called Findia.
Findbarr's death was recorded in 579 as "quies Uinniani episcopi".
The nearby Kylliemingan probably is Cill m'Fhinnéin, meaning "my Finnén's church."
