Scottish/celtic names

Early days yet for us to be thinking of names (7weeks just now), but just for future lists at the moment, wondered if anyone had any good scottish/celtic girls names that they could suggest?

We have a Struan at the moment and I like that it is slightly unusual, but not totally unheard of so am looking for something in a similar category for girls. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Hello there - hope you're feeling happier!

This is the fun bit - well to begin with any way!

My dds middle name is Voirrey. I wish that we were brave enough to have had it as a first name. We also considered Ealish, Joney/Jonee and Brenna (meaning raven haired beauty) for ds2 but obvisely didn't need them!

I found a couple of good websites through google.
