     summary: But examination proves that only a few are directly parallel in name with Irish divinities, and while here there are fundamental likenesses, the _incidents_ with Irish parallels may be due to mere superficial borrowings, to that interchange of _Märchen_ and mythical _données_ which has everywhere occurred. [9] Broca, _Mem. d'Anthrop._ i. 370 ff.

For, though construed as Welsh, the name would mean the Silly who is go Dwt [195], 'somewhat tidy or natty'; but the dwt (mutated from twt) was suggested doubtless by the tot of such fairy names as Tom Tit Tot.
