For a written work, I need to find out the following: any assistance
would be greatly appreciated:
  1 - About how many Earth years does it take for the galaxy to revolve
      one time on its axis? (I read it years ago, but can't find it now)
  2 - I need to know a couple of "common" Gaelic names (of people): 
      something equivalent to our "John Smith" or "James Jones"
 
 Thanks for your consideration (and possible answers!)  :)   -chas.
