IRVINE & MACKAY - Fermanagh

[Just Kia]

Hubby's great grandfather, Thomas IRVINE, was born 23 Nov 1883 (date given by another family member) in Irvinestown, Ederney, Fermanagh.
I have to wonder if there is a connection between the name IRVINE and being in Irvinestown, or if it's just co-incidence.

His parents were Henry IRVINE and Catherine MACKAY (both suspected to be born circa 1840).
Henry and Catherine married 13 Jan 1865 in Magheraculmoney, Fermanagh, Ireland - Ardess Church of Ireland.

Thomas had the following siblings:
Henry b 25 Feb 1869 (IGI ref C012011) Irvinestown
Catherine b 5 Feb 1871 (IGI ref C014057) Irvinestown
Herbert b c1875
Elizabeth 29 Sep 1879 (IGI ref C009644) Kesh

Thomas married Sarah Jane COCHRANE (b 24 Mar 1891) 19 Feb 1907 Drumkeeran, Fermanagh, Ireland - Drumkeeran Church of Ireland
Sarah's parents were John COCHRAN(E) and Catherine CHITTICK - they married 11 Nov 1886 Drumkeeran, Fermanagh, Ireland - Drumkeeran Church of Ireland

I'm struggling to find my way back any further with this line, so any help or pointing in the right direction would be most greatly recieved.

Deepest apologies I didn't know this reply was here until I just now found it in my "new replies" link.
I'm going to look into these in the next couple days - not tonight though, it's almost 1am and I should be in bed

Thank you so much for taking the time to have a look.
