Right ladies, need some ideas for my friend's baby girl to be. She wants an Irish name to match her other kids but most of her favourites have been used by other family members. So other than

Aoife
Orla
Sinead
Grainne
Emer
Caoimhe
Aine

all of which she can't use/won't repeat, do you have any other nice ideas?

Dearbhla - Dervla
Saoirse - Seer-sha
Aisling - Ashlin
Clodagh - Clo-da

Roughly speaking...

Some of these names are really pretty to look at, but I haven't a scooby how to pronounce them! Could someone assist me?

BTW, I've always liked Siobhan.

Aoibh is lovely
I've heard of a girl named Siamsa, which isn't traditionally a name, but I think is beautiful

Eilish is nice (like Is-land only Is-lish)

Saoirse is lovely

Naoise (Nee - sha) which is actually a boys name but is turning unisex as many are adopting as a girls name (when I say many, not really, is quite unusual, I love it)

BarbieLovesKen · 23/07/2010 23:39

Saoirse(freedom) and Duireann (Dur - in), Claoine (clean - a), Roisín

wukter · 23/07/2010 23:26

Dearbhla is nice, as is Dara.

Buzzybb · 23/07/2010 23:24
