== == The name Dublin is a Hiberno-English derivative of 'Dubh Linn' (Irish, "black pool"). Historically, in the traditional Gaelic script used for the Irish language, 'bh' was written with a dot over the 'b', as 'Duḃ Linn' or 'Duḃlinn'. The French-speaking Normans omitted the dot and spelled the name variously as 'Develyn' or 'Dublin'.
Dublin in Irish is "Baile Átha Cliatha" which means "Town at the Ford of Hurdles".
However the name Dublin is an anglicisation of "Dubhlinn" which means "Blackpool".
