From the Wikipedia article

Coalsnaughton or Calabar (from Scottish Gaelic: Cois Neachdain, lit. 'at the foot of Nechtan('s land)') is a village in Clackmannanshire, Scotland. It is just south of Tillicoultry, in whose parish the village lies. The miners' row was built by Robert Bald. The name was recorded as Cosnachtan in 1492 and is probably named after Nechtan mac Der-Ilei, a Pictish king. As a result of the mining industry in the town, the first syllable got interpreted as "Coals". This then got re-interpreted by some Gaelic speakers as having come from Gaelic caolas "strait".
