Irish girls names - really stumped!

[Annarose2014]

DS has an Irish name so this next bean that's coming along probably should vaguely match.

Boys names are fine -Irish boys names are cool!

Irish girls names on the other hand are proving impossible!

They are either names I went to school with & so have all 1980s schoolfriend associations (Emer, Ciara, Neasa, Orla etc)

Or are names that are chock full of dh, bh, mh etc. Not for me, tbh.

Are there any that are cool and modern and sleek sounding?

At the moment the only one I'm really liking is Cara, but I'm not madly in love with it or anything and I'd like more options!

(By the way at this stage am also thinking "vaguely celtic-y" will do too, as I'm really stumped)

Was about to come on and say Caraiosa or Cara for short.

I've always liked Aisling, Aoibhe and Finola, which aren't too horrendous spelling-wise.

Alannah
Aoife
Briege
Clodagh
Doireann
Fiadh
Liadan
Aine
Bronagh
Eilis
Muirenn
Nola
Roisin
Saraid
Siofra
Talulla
Sorcha

Caraiosa is lovely, but I suspect DH may object to the whole "friend of Jesus" thing, being an atheist!

Shame, as it's a good one.

He's also vetoed Ceola which I was briefly excited about as it's unusual and easy to spell. He says it sounds like "YOLO"!

He likes Alannah but I'm not sure - is it a bit American?

Laoise?

I like Aoife

I really love the name Saoirse.

Had a look through my contacts but everyone is Aoife Ciara Emer Orla Niamh - we must be the same age

Caoileann
Sorcha
Aine

I met a little Mairead recently. All the other mums of little ones had name envy about how cute it was.

Im not Irish so no idea if it's 80's throwback.

A friend had a baby girl last year and called her Clodagh. I really like it.

Maeve or Maebh.
Roisin
Eibhlinn
Eileen
Moia or Moya

Mairead is a bit of an old fashioned name, yeah. Maybe it's due a comeback but not with me! Went to school with several - also had a nun Sr. Mairead. The horror!

Moya is nice. But worried everyone would go "sorry - Moira did you say?"

But that's probably just my nutty pregnant brain talking.

Not typical Irish names (we are Irish) but...

Sabina - have several of those in my family but previous generation (not Sabrina)
Honoria (Honor, Nonnie, Ria) - also have a few of those

Sive

Moya is quite well known in the English speaking world since Moya Doherty directed riverdance. It's pronounced pretty much as it's spelled too. I think it's a cute name.

Muireann...causes issues in Catastrophe though!

Niamh
Seána/Shauna
Sorcha
Aisling/Aislinn
Máire/Moira
Peig (haha, let's see if anyone else gets that one!)

I know a Saorlaith it's very pretty.

I have an Ailbhe which some people spell Alva. Also love Niamh, Maeve, Mairead, Aoife

We have a little "Mella" named after a beautiful Irish nurse who helped at her birth

Alannah is a bit American, yeah.

Aifric
Siofra
Sorcha
Roise
Aoibheann

Fly, I actually reckon Peig could come back with the younger generations that never read it! It's got that vaguely vintage sound that's trendy atm.

Ciara (Kiera), Mary, Aisling, Bridget (Brigit) Bernadette, Nora (Nonie)

Oh I'd love a little Peigin!
