Wasn't someone looking for the meaning?  This is probably too late, but
while thumbing through a new Scottish cookbook this evening, I found a
recipe for Cullen Skink and under it reads:  "This is not an offensive small
animal but a traditional recipe for soup from the Moray Firth area.  'Skink'
comes from the Gaelic and means 'essence.'"  Fish used is a smoked or finnan
haddie.
