Hi guys do you like any of the above names and if so which ones and why (and why not)
Thank you!

Pronounced Kian, Keiran and Kai but want c spellings (I think)

Also, he likes it, the worst he's got in terms of making fun is being called Ciar the Beer. That's just normal little kid messing about - it clearly doesn't rhythm with anything too nasty.

he was quite swarthy and dark when born and then went blond which didn't really go with the meaning - he is dark again now and almost 6 foot so far so the "an" removal was the right thing to do :)

sorry casey - I have answered that - it will be at the bottom of Page 1 - we are in Scotland :)

He was very cute :)

Cián, Ciarán, Cai

Thanks and hope you've survived the hard sell :o

DS1 (Gregor) didn't have a name for 3 days. DS2 didn't have a name for a week and a half. Maybe you just need to chill a bit and wait till he is here?

Oh my gosh baby Ciar is so cute! Smile

I totally think you should get yourself one of those, OP Wink

casey101 · 05/06/2015 15:25

ha ha - we are in Scotland so we pronounce the R.

Warning, this may put you off: We regularly get a Christmas card from South African neighbours that mispronounces/spells all our names and they seem to think he is called Ikea, just like the shop :o DS1 is Kreg and I can't tell you the rest as it would out me even more!

Cian and Ciaran are lovely. I dislike Cai.
