What this page deliberately does not say
You will find “meanings” for Nuala all over the internet. Most are folklore stacked on folklore, so this page makes no meaning or etymology claims at all. The carving is the product, and it is real: the same letter rules our ogham reference documents, applied by the same code that draws every ogham stroke on this site.
