Comment: Pronounced webbr, waybr, waybarr; northern dialects mostly use diman for camp; Y:Hanln spelling indicates [waibar], not [weibar]; waybarmir 'camp (pl.)' (Y:Holm); also camp (M:Liv) (and therefore a dwelling place like a house); also used as clan name at Lismore. Gd:Geyt meaning includes matches.
