Folk etymologies[edit]

Owing to the obvious attempt to figure out what "Mount Reuil" meant, there are numerous folk etymologies around the internet, from mont + ruisseau ("Brook Mountain"), mont + royal or un monstre n'ayant qu'un oeil ("King's Mountain" or "cyclops"), mont + Radolium ("Rado's Mountain"), etc. — LlywelynII 02:02, 1 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
