There are several islands called Linga, or similar names, in Scotland. "Linga", in the Northern Isles, and sometimes "Lingay" and "Lingeigh" in the Hebrides, is a common name for an island, and occurs most frequently in Shetland. It is derived from the old Norse lyngey meaning 'heather island'. The Scottish Gaelic equivalent is Eilean Fraoch or Fraoch Eilean.
