The modern name Malahide may come from “MullachÍde” meaning “the hill of Íde” or “Íde’s sand-hill”. It could also mean “Sand-hills of the Hydes”probably referring to a Norman family from the Donabate area. According to the Placenames Database of Ireland the name Malahide is possibly derived from the Irish “BaileÁthaThíd” meaning “the town of the ford of Thíd”. Malahide Bay was anciently called InberDomnann, the "river-mouth of the Fir Domnann"
