From Wikipedia - Eochaid mac Domangairt :

Eochaid mac Domangairt (d. ca. 697 ) was a king of Dál Riata (modern western Scotland ) in about 697 . He was a member of the Cenél nGabráin , the son of Domangart mac Domnaill and father of Eochaid mac Echdach ; Alpín mac Echdach may also be a son of this Eochaid.

He is named in Dál Riata king-lists, the Duan Albanach and the Synchronisms of Flann Mainistrech . In some sources he is called Eochaid Crook-Nose (Riannamail), but modern readings take this is a being a garbled reference to Fiannamail ua Dúnchado rather than an epithet .

The killing of Eochu nepos Domnaill, Eochaid grandson of Domnall Brecc , is reported in the Annals of Ulster for 697.
