What's a Finbar?
Finbar is the name of the Patron Saint of the city of Cork, Ireland and has become a common Irish first name meaning "White Head" in Irish Gaelic.  A number of miracles have been attributed to Saint Finbar, the most impressive being that the sun did not set for two weeks when he died.  Better late than never I suppose.  Located in his city of Cork, one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Ireland bears his name to this day.
