If I like Cian and Rory

We had a little boy yesterday - he was a bit of a surprise as the sonographer had said “she” during a recent scan!

We have an irish surname that is difficult to spell so looking for a simpler first name. Doesn’t have to be Irish though.

We like Cian and Rory - would love to know what people think? Also if you have any ideas of similar names that’d be great.

Rory is lovely and suitable for boy and man.
What a surprise to get your head around! Is he your first?
Best wishes to you and your family.
