Does anyone know the origin of the name "Dallas"?

A book called "Baby Names" by Globe says it is Gaelic for wise. I've also read somewhere that it is Teutonic for playful. A book called "A Concise Dictionary of First Names" by Oxford says the surname is of Scotish origin, derived from the villageof Dallas in Morayshire, named in Gaelic as Dalfhas "meadow stance", ie a meadow traditionally used as a night's resting place by cattle droves.- — Preceding unsigned comment added by D parker (talk • contribs) 04:35, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Intro
Surely if the American surname comes from the place in Scotland, and there has to be an intro, it should be that, not the surname that is there. Or even better, remove the intro altogether and just have like most disambig pages.91.84.51.91 17:57, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
