Irish Girls Names

Any suggestions? I don't want something impossible to pronounce, but I would like to use an Irish name. Thanks!

Re: Irish Girls Names

DD is Mairead Geraldine and many of the names that carlowlou posted are on my list as well, but most of them are hard to pronounce by most Americans.

Many of the names given, while nice, are more Irish surnames that have become popular as first names in America or "place names" such as Kerry, Shannon, Erin - which would not be common names given as first names. In Ireland basically any saints name and the old Gaelic names are popular. "American" names are also very popular over there. my cousins over there who have had babies in the last couple of years have been named Leah, Lauren, Lily, Dylan and Jennifer.

We are considering these names if DC is a Chat Icon Most of these are hard to pronounce, so you may not like them.

Niamh
Aoife
Aine
Maeve
Clare

I also love the name Sinead but it rhymes with my DD's name, so that's dumb!! I also like Ciara, but DH doesn't. I also really like Rory; it's technically a boys name, but one of those names that could work for a girl too!

Re: Irish Girls Names

My DD is Callan Mairead. Like donegal mention, Callan is more of a surname in Ireland and the name of a town. Her nickname is Callie. Chat Icon
