Of course there is. What was felt about the Caipi (pronounced like Cawpee) branch-name (from Capa = a cape) is that they were a branch of Harringtons who wore capes at a protest march in the dim and distant past -- or so tradition has it. I remember one time Corby Harrington writing to me. I wrote to him saying I felt that his name originately came from somebody trying to pronounce Caupy in the States with a Beara accent !! I traced it and it proved to be correct.
