BellaOnline Forums Health and Fitness Baby Names What's Your Favorite Irish Baby Name?

I knew someone who was named Tinka. It was an old Irish name of a fairy.

Ryan and Aidan, Saoirse and (for a nickname) Ruadh.

I like the classic ones like Ryan and Bridget.

i love the original Celtic spellings but fear that my children will forever be misunderstood where we live. (My cousins' father is from Ireland, and their names were not anglicized since half of their family lives overseas; also their names are very common in Ireland but rarely heard of in America.) So if i were to go with a name of Celtic origin i would most likely "anglicize" some of them. i like: Declan Rhys Bryn Carys Fionn/Fiona Niamh Lorcan Seamus and i've always loved my own name, Tara... since there are so many people out there who despise their given name i have felt very lucky.

I like irish names! My name is Darci and it can either be irish or french. I love the name Seamus.

Darci:)

Liam, Conner, Conneley, and a few others are some I like additionally
