Isle of Skye
The Isle of Skye, commonly known as Skye, is the largest and most northerly island in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland. In Scottish Gaelic it is commonly referred to as An t-Eilean Sgitheanach ("The Winged Isle"). In April 2007 it was reported in the media that the island's official name had been changed by the Highland Council to Eilean a' Cheò, a poetic name meaning "Isle of Mist". However, the Council clarified that this name referred only to one of its 22 wards in the then impending election, and that there were no plans to change signage or discontinue the English name.
