We're having trouble deciding on a boy's name. We have a long list of names we like but no clear front runner.
We would probably go with James but close friends got there first and we want something not already used in our immediate circle. Names we like include Matthew, Joseph, Peter.
We would also consider something Irish, but as DH doesn't really speak Irish and we live in a mainly Protestant part of NI, nothing too difficult to pronounce for non-Irish speakers. Irish names we like include Cian (which again, we can't use), Aidan, Conor.
Girl's name will likely be one of Elizabeth, Aisling, Meredith.
Boy's middle name likely John after family but not a deal breaker if the first name doesn't go with it.
