also, strictly speaking, nouns are linked to complex or obscure place names by simply leniting the first letter (if lenitable): tèarmann Choire Fiadh. rathad Thobar Mhoire. còisir Bharraigh. etc. there is no introduction of the genitive within the place name. this is different for simple place names e.g. A' Mhòine, rathad na Mòine. Am Baile Mòr, sràid a' Bhaile Mhòir. etc
