Theastaigh ó Chúchulainn go mairfeadh a cháil go deo. Bhí cumhachtaí draíochta ag an sárlaoch seo. Bhí neart dochloíte aige, níor buadh riamh air i rás, níor sáraíodh riamh é i gcath. Ní raibh a shárú le fáil agus insítear scéalta faoina ghaiscí ó shin i leith. Agus is é an scéal is cáiliúla ar fad orthu go léir ná ‘Mar a Fuair Cúchulainn a Ainm’.
Cúchulainn wanted to be remembered forever. The greatest of heroes, his powers were magical. No one could outdo him in strength, or ever win a race against him, or beat him in battle. He was invincible and tales of his deeds are still told. And perhaps the most famous of all stories is how Cúchulainn got his name.
