There is a Saint Farnan here in Kildare whose feast day is february 15th.

Who is the Irish woman saint who carries a square symbol on her staff?

That's interesting. I will have to look into this saint further to see what relationship, if any, he has to the Saint Faranann listed here. I think there is a Faranann listed among the abbots of Kildare.

Off-hand I don't know, do you have an image or a reference for me to follow up?

Think I definitely need to look into this one. Surprised to see a saint of the Columban family as an abbot of Kildare. Inevitably there is more than one saint of this name!
