How many Erins do you know?

[LittleDonkin]

Just curious as I have named my DD this and I dont know anyone else with the name!

My niece - she's four - very pretty name.

My cousin. She's 20. Lovely name imo.

Lovely name - a friend named her DD Erin (17 months), and it was on the list of possibles if DS 2 had been a girl.

I know two, one Erin (5) & one Aeryn (2). It's fairly popular in Scotland I think, very pretty name.

If I had my way My dd would be an Erin. No i don't know any.

One baby named Eirinn.

1

DD was very nearly called it - DH from near Port Erin on Isle of Man. A nasty (now ex)friend told me it was the worst name she had ever heard just before dd was born. Didn't use it but for a long time wished I had. two ds's after that so never got to use the name.

I know 3 Erins - aged 3, 6 and 30ish.

Lovely name

I know a lovely bloke called Erin. He suffered a little for it too while growing up (his Dad was Irish, his ma looked up Irish boys' names and didn't realise that it had been pretty much overtaken as a girl's name). He started calling himself Ernie for a while [blech!] but is happy with Erin now.

mrsKarpet - he will be very pleased to hear that it's still used as a boy's name in Irish families. :)

I know 2 of them , one 4 and one a baby

I know one aged 15.

Our friends have just named their DD Erin, so just one that I know of up to now.
