''The Book of Leinster owes its present name to [[John O'Donovan (scholar)|John O'Donovan]] (bás. 1861), who coined it on account of the strong associations of its textual contents with the province of Leinster, and to [[Robert Atkinson (philologist)|Robert Atkinson]], who adopted it when he published the lithographic [[facsimile edition]].<ref name=Hellmuth />
''However, it is now commonly accepted that the manuscript was originally known as the ''Lebor na Nuachongbála'' (''Leabhar na Nuachongbhála'').<ref>[https://www.logainm.ie/28230.aspx An Nuachongbháil, Co. Laoise] ar logainm.ie</ref> This was established by [[R.I. Best]], who observed that several short passages from the Book of Leinster are cited in an early 17th-century manuscript written by [[Sir James Ware]] (bás. 1666),<ref>British Library, Londain, cód seilf Add. MS 4821.</ref> written when Ware stayed at [[Ballina, County Mayo|Ballina]] (Ballyna, Co. Kildare), enjoying the hospitality of [[Rory O'Moore (Irish noble)|Rory O'Moore]].
''Best's suggestion is corroborated by evidence from Dublin, Royal Irish Academy MS B. iv. 2, also of the early 17th century. As [[Rudolf Thurneysen]] noted, the scribe copied several texts from the Book of Leinster, identifying his source as the "Leabhar na h-Uachongbála".<ref>Thurneysen, ''Die irische Helden- und Königsage bis zum 17. Jahrhundert'', p. 34.</ref>
