Hi all - just looking for your thoughts and any extra ideas?

Our favourites so far are
Carys
Iris
Saoirse.

I also like Remi, Rory, Niamh, Cora, Margot.

Any other names you think I’d like, or preferences from the list?

Thanks in advance.

From your top 3, I like Carys the best. How about
Cara (prefer this to Cora)
Edie
Callie
Maeve

Can't choose, but just wanted to say you have great name taste!

Cara is an Irish name which means friend.

Carys and Rory are great names

Saoirse definitely. Such a pretty name.

I like Iris the best. We have a Saoirse in our NCT group and everyone either mis-spells or mis-pronounces her name. Beautiful name and meaning, but that would weigh against the name for me.

I like your names. I think my fav is Carys because it's the more original of the three, I don't remember seeing it before (though I did see it written Charis once).

Remi's a boy name in my country, also it feels like a nickname.

Also not keen on Margot, it's everywhere on here which put me off.

Cora sounds like a name from last generation to me.

Iris is nice, I like the sound of Saoirse but outside of ireland most people won't know how to pronounce it.
