We're TATTC (thinking about TTC!) so this is not urgent! DH has his heart set on a name for a girl, but I'm not 100% sure.
I'm liking Constance at the moment. What do you think?

I love it.

I have to warn you though, that I wanted it for dd but couldn't because part of dd's last name is a potentially embarrassing name starting Con..... And she says that the ONLY think she likes about her last name is that it stopped me calling her Constance!

I don't think it's specifically Irish, although all the 'virtue" names used to be popular with Roman Catholics.

Like it.

I like it

I think Constance is a beautiful name. I know a Constance, but she's known as Connie.

I think it's Irish, isn't it?
