Dollar
Dollar (population 2,877) is a small town with a population of 2,800 individuals in Clackmannanshire, Scotland. It is 12 miles East of Stirling. Dollar was when a home of Mary, Queen of Scots. Feasible analyses are that Dollar is stemmed from Doilleir, an Irish and also Scots Gaelic acceptation dark as well as dismal, or from different words in Pictish: 'Dol' (area) + 'Ar' (cultivable) or Dol (valley) + Ar (high). An additional derivation is from Dolar, 'haugh place' (cf Welsh dôl 'field'. This word was obtained from British or Pictish right into Scottish Gaelic as dail 'water-meadow, haugh'). John Everett-Heath, in derives it as 'Location of the Water Meadow' from the Celtic dôl 'water meadow' and ar 'area'. An additional theory, connected to Castle Campbell's alternate name of Castle Gloom, is that it stems from Scots-French "Doleur", indicating sadness.
