Great suggestions so far...will probably end up with a longer list after this!!

Ok we are Welsh but I love any celtic names - So far I have a Dion, Ben, Erin & Rory. What would flow the best with that little lot??

Anyone know who I am yet??!

My all-time favourite Irish name is Saoirse.

But I like all the names on your shortlist.

I love carys
what about arwyn - meaning muse I think thats really pretty, dd1 was almost that and it was a close call - still in consideration for this one if a girl

dilys is pretty too (double check the spelling though)

congratulations on number 5! can we have a clue to the other dc names so we know you're style and if it 'goes'?

Iona
Islay
Erin
Eilidh
Ellis
Elish
Ishbel
Heather
Kirsty
Cara
Cora
Niamh
Maev e
Aoife

my dd2 is Lexie - scottish for sparkling!

mazzystar · 29/03/2008 15:44

I love Carys, but there isn't any suggestion of Welsh in our family so couldn't really use it

Angharad?

Scottishy ones
Kirsty
Bridie

Ceri, Bethan, Sian, Megan.

I like all the ones on your list esp Cerys.

I have a Welsh neice called Ceri or Ceri-Jane when she's in trouble!!
