It has been erroneously turned into Gaelic. Torboll or Torroboll is undoubtedly a Norse name, but the examiner wrote the last syllable so as to read - bal instead of - bol, the former being a Gaelic, the latter a Norse termination, and gave an imaginary meaning to the name, which was turned into Gaelic in the office.
