Caemh (Or Caoimhe)

is commemorated as a Scottish saint on April 4. Mart. Doneg. has "Caemh, virgin of Cill-Caoimhe," and Mart. Tallaght, "Coine, Cillicoine." Again, at Nov. 2, Mart. Doneg. gives "Caoimhe, the Albanan, of Cill-Chaoimhe," which Dr. Reeves (Mart. Doneg. p. 294, n.) interprets " of Alba the modern Scotland."
