In Irish Mullinavat is pronounced 'Muilleann an Bhata' which means 'The Mill of the Stick'.

Tradition has it that the name was derived from an ancient mill which could only be approached by means of a rough stick over the Glendonnel River, where the bridge on the main road is now, beside the Garda Barracks. In the middle of the 18th century, Mullinavat consisted of but a few houses. In 1801, the number of houses was 35, with 158 inhabitants. The construction of a church here in 1805 had a decided influence on the general improvement of the village, which in 1841 had 110 inhabited houses. In 1871 the population of Mullinavat was 531. The parish Church of Kilbecan was in use up to 1830. It was then used as a protestant church. It was dedicated to St. Becan, Bishop and confessor whose feast day is set down as May 27th. Mullinavat was originally comprised of the civil parishes of Kilbecan, Kilahy, and Rossinan. Mullinavat, prior to 1842, formed one parochial parish with Kilmacow.
