I'm Irish living in Sweden and expecting DC2. I really want an Irish name. DH likes some of the names I've suggested - until he hears the spelling - he's a Swede. Aoife is a girls name I like but the spelling leaves everyone here confused so DH rules it out.
I don't know if DC is a boy or girl so I need to look at both.
Not to be a complete name nazi I'm also willing to consider Swedish/Nordic names if they'd work back in Ireland should we ever return there to live.
Any ideas? I'm going through books and online lists but nothing sings to me.
It took us weeks to decide on DS1's name after he was born. During the pregnancy we called him "beany" and after the birth we couldn't think of him as anything else at first. I'm hoping to avoid that silliness this time. I don't want to say what we did name him, but it wasn't Beany!
