The instances of fell are within the Dumfriesshire and Galloway territory of this element, with few outliers farther north or east, as discussed inside in an article on ‘Gaelic and Scots in Southern Hill Names’. White Coomb may be named after the snow-bearing qualities of a coomb or ‘hollow in a mountain-side’ in its south-east face. Hart Fell and White Coomb are the same on William Crawford’s Dumfriesshire map of 1804, but Saddle Yoke is Saddleback and Swatte Fell is Swaw Fell, making it more doubtful that Swatte represents swart, referring to the long stretch of very dark cliffs on the far side.
