• The son of The Dagda and Boann, Aengus is also known as Macan Óc ("the young boy" or "young son"), and corresponds to the Welsh mythical figure Mabon and the Celtic god Maponos.
• Boann or Boand is the Irish goddess of the River Boyne (Bóinn), an important river in Ireland's historical province of Meath.
• In a variant version of the birth of Aengus, she is the wife of Elcmar who is seduced by the Dagda: as such she may be a double, and is explicitly named as such, of Boann, who plays that role in the best-known version of the tale.

• The aetiological explanation for the Boyne itself was an out-surging of the Well of Segais on Síd Nechtain, the mythological form of Carbury Hill belonging to Nechtan, which tore apart and drowned his wife the goddess Boann, in a flood of water, and in some versions her lapdog Dabilla, before sweeping out to sea giving the generic name Inber Bóinne or Inber Bóinde to the Boyne estuary.
