Kenneth is also identified to have had a second son, Dúngal, who was killed in 999 by his cousin Gille Coemgáin, son of Kenneth III. Boite mac Cináeda is sometimes ascribed as the son of Kenneth II, and by others as the son of Kenneth III (Cináed mac Duib), however, is more commonly counted as a son of Kenneth II.
