Talk:Dáithí Ó Conaill

Untitled
The spelling here should be Ó Chonaill. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Donnchadh (talk • contribs)

On what basis, Donnchadh? I don't know what (if any) fluency in Irish you have, but male surnames do not aspirate (take a "h"). That's elementary. --Damac 13:48, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

For what it's worth, Republican literature used the spelling without the "h". He tended to use O'Connell, rather than the Irish form. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.166.6.153 (talk • contribs)

Alternative name?
I know that Dáithí Ó Conaill was occasionally known as "David O'Connell", but could he also be the "David McConnell" who stood in Belfast East for SF in 1964? Warofdreams talk 12:47, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Cause of death
Dáithí Ó Conaill died at 52-53 - presumably not of natural causes. Should the article say what his cause of death was? 94.6.182.172 (talk) 15:00, 14 December 2013 (UTC)


 * He died of alcoholism. (81.136.23.227 (talk) 10:25, 10 June 2017 (UTC))

'Activity' or not
"During the late 1960s, Ó Conaill played little part in the activities of the IRA or Sinn Féin... ...He was active in the IRA through the 1960s" I think this ought to be clarified. Harfarhs (talk) 18:13, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
