In order to avoid any mistranslation, any new development name being proofed or translated should be carried out by the Place Names Commission. This information should be then added to the aforementioned database, once it has been prepared. For more information please contact the Place Names Commission at logainmneacha@pobail.ie, www.pobail.ie, or www.logainm.ie
