my dad is Irish, but DH and I are English
We have a DD already who is a Roisin (after a much-loved relative on my dad's side) and are now expecting another girl.
We were going to go with a more traditional name this time eg. Eva, Eliza) but now the name Orla is growing on me.
Roisin and Orla?
Is it a bit too much Irish, given we aren't Irish? It feels a tiny bit silly maybe- like I'm trying to make 'a thing' of my Irishness. But I'm not, I just love the names. And I think I'm a teeny bit in LOVE with Orla
