Eilean nan Deargannan

Eilean nan Deargannan (sometimes written as Eilean Deargannan) is a small island in Loch Lomond, in west central Scotland.

It lies between Rowardennan (to the east) and Inverbeg.

The name is thought to mean "Island of fleas[1] or sandhoppers" in Scottish Gaelic.

It has euphemistically been suggested to come from "purple island" as well.
