Strong Irish boy names?

Love Tadhg and Ciarán but feel like it’s just not clicking the way my first baby’s name did. Any suggestions for really strong Irish boy names?

It’s a real footballers name around here, I know 3 Tomás’ and they all get Mossy. There was Mossy Quinn who played for Dublin and he was Tomás. I probably wouldn’t even have thought of it only my husband said he would call him Mossy.

Love Tomás. Just don’t like the nickname Mossy

I'll say I know a good few Tomás and that nickname has never been used , more so tom honestly. I really like Tiarnàn or Tiarnà & Fionn
