From the Wikipedia article

St Fillans (Scottish Gaelic: Am Port Mòr) is a village in Perthshire in the central highlands of Scotland, in the council area of Perth and Kinross. The village lies at the eastern end of Loch Earn, 5 miles (8 km) west of Comrie on the A85 road, at the point where the River Earn leaves the loch. St Fillans was a small clachan in the 18th century, known as Port of Lochearn (Scottish Gaelic: Port Loch Èire), or Meikleport, which is a literal translation from the Gaelic name Am Port Mòr into Scots. In 1817 it was renamed St Fillans by Lord Gwydyr, the husband of Clementina Drummond, heiress to the Drummond Estate.
