Etymology
Quick pronunciation: KEE-ur inion FEE-uch-nay
Ciar ingen Fiachnae is the Old Irish form of the Primitive Irish Cera inigena Veqanai, The documentation for both parts of the name comes from the first volume of the Irish Annals. The use of Ciar was recorded in 679 and 681. Fiachna is recorded for several years and was found as early as 574. Fiachna is modified to Fiachnae in an early form of genderization. Ingen translates to "daughter of".
For comparison, the male version of the name would be Ciaran mac Fiachna. Ciaran is the diminutive form and there is no known explanation for why the diminutive is male when it would typically be female. To indicate 'son of' use mac. Fiachna is not modified.
Because the names, while Old Irish, were documented and then recorded again, they may have a later period spelling of the earlier period names. The documentation referred to by the SCA can be found here and here. As well as in "Irish Names," by Donnchadh Ó Corráin and Fidelma Maguire, 2nd edition (Dublin, Ireland: Lilliput Press, 1990). In his book "Early Medieval Ireland 400 to 1200," Dáibhí Ó Cróinín notes that the Old Irish was being written with the Roman alphabet by 600AD and that there is a theory that transition and crossover between the Primitive and Old Irish may have occurred (pages 189-193)(New York, USA: Routledge, 2013).
