As this is a Gaeltacht village, the Irish Béal an Daingin is the only official name. The anglicized spelling Bealadangan has no official standing.

The primary spoken language is Irish, and all but a few of the elderly population also speak English. A pub, a post office and a primary school (Toureen) are within a few miles. Other nearby villages are Leitir Móir and An Cheathrú Rua.

Diarmuid Mac an Adhastair (1943–2015), born in Béal an Daingin, was an actor in the TV drama Ros na Rún.^[2][3]
