Three week old DS doesn't have a name, fed up of him being 'baby'!

DS is now three weeks old and we're getting to the stage where finding a name is desperate! Before he was born it was pretty much decided that he would be either Seamus, Marcus or Fergus. However, he just doesn't 'feel' like any of those names. Ciaran and Alexander were also possibilities but just aren't him. So could you lovely MNers through some great names at us? We like older names and also Gaelic names - the help would be much apprieciated!
Almost forgot, middle name is needed too.

But great suggestions all round

DharmaBumpkin · 08/02/2012 20:25

Seth Ernest is fab :)

ViolaCrayola · 08/02/2012 20:29

Like all apart from Logan. JEM is really cute!

TheLittleFriend · 08/02/2012 21:00

Jude is my #1, then Seth, then Logan. Tavish is a great middle name.

LaFilleSurLePont · 08/02/2012 21:06

I love Seth. Fantastic name.

Logan is nice.

Malachy is horrid.

I hate Jude.

Lovely names
Malachy is a lovely name but when he says his name it will be Malachy MCCartney which can sound a bit fussy - but go with it if you like the M-M sound.

Jude is lovely, Seth sounds a bit odd to me like it is short for something (and I only know Seth lakeman - do you like his music?).

Jude Ernest McCartney (JEM). Perfect. Do it. Grin

OzzieLou · 09/02/2012 21:29

The final shortlist all look great - my personal rankings:

1st - Malachy Tavish McCartney
2nd - Jude Ernest McCartney (JEM)
3rd - Seth Ernest McCartney
4th - Logan Tavish McCartney

Let us know what you choose!

And baby Lyonheart is .....

Jude Ernest McCartney!

Thank you so much for all of your fantastic help, although I can't garantee that I won't be back having a last minute wobble when we go to register him, which I am putting off as long as possible!

Congrats!

Jude is lovely. Well done.

OzzieLou · 10/02/2012 09:26

Fab, love it. V many congrats

ShowOfUmblestAnds · 10/02/2012 09:39

Lovely. My niece and my goddaughter are both called Jude (one has a Mc surname too!). And a colleague has just had a beautiful little boy and named him Jude.

So, I've never met a non-beautiful, non-wonderful Jude.

Surf25 · 10/02/2012 11:31

Gorgeous name! Am perhaps slightly biased as if we ever had a DS I think his name would have the initials JEM too...
Jude sounds great with your other ds's names too..

Congratulations!

BonzoDooDah · 10/02/2012 13:06

lovely!

TheLittleFriend · 10/02/2012 19:10

oh my goodness, you chose the one I suggested! That's such a great name! Congratulations x
