Dollar
Dollar (population 2,877) is a village with a population of 2,800 individuals in Clackmannanshire, Scotland. It is 12 miles East of Stirling. Dollar was as soon as a place of residence of Mary, Queen of Scots. Feasible interpretations are that Dollar is stemmed from Doilleir, an Irish and also Scots Gaelic word meaning dark and also gloomy, or from numerous words in Pictish: 'Dol' (field) + 'Ar' (cultivatable) or Dol (valley) + Ar (high). One more derivation is from Dolar, 'haugh area' (cf Welsh dôl 'meadow'. This word was obtained from British or Pictish right into Scottish Gaelic as dail 'water-meadow, haugh'). John Everett-Heath, in obtains it as 'Area of the Water Meadow' from the Celtic dôl 'water meadow' and ar 'place'. An additional theory, linked to Castle Campbell's alternate name of Castle Gloom, is that it stems from Scots-French "Doleur", meaning unhappiness.
