I was never called snath raw hawn before, never heard of it? In what situation were you called this name, it might give a clue to the meaning of it:
Snáth would generally mean thread and rothán (raw-hawn) would mean the castor of a wheel....which doesnt really explain anything...Alot of old words have very specific dialects and could have been passed down from generation or even just used within familys...But if you have any further story on the word, share it...
