 Gofannon: a Cymric, Brythonic and Irish god, also known as Goibniu, Gobanos, Gobannus, Cobannus (Great Smith)
Thus we have Gofannon for the insular Brythonic Celts, Goibniu for the Goidelic Celts, and Gobanos (who is known from an inscription found at Berne, Switzerland) for the continental Brythonic Celts.
Goibniu was also the crafter of the Goidelic gods' weapons and created the replacement silver hand for Nuadu.
He may have played a similar role in Cymric mythos, as suggested by the name of Nudd Llaw Ereint (Nudd of the silver hand) but the tale of the creation of this limb is lost; though it can be inferred from the equivalent Irish tale.

The Goibniu's belief can be summed up as "Actions count." Intentions and thought are one thing, but in the end it is the result, what remains after the sword is forged, the battle is fought, that is the most important.
