I like the names Breagh (bree-ah) or Darragh (darr-ah) for a little girl but DP is not so keen, he what do you guys think?

I like Darragh for a boy, never heard it for a girl, and I haven't heard of Breagh.

How about Caragh, Bronagh, Clodagh, Oonagh or Orlagh instead?

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 21/02/2017 08:58

Love Clodagh and Bronagh.

Isn't Darragh a boys' name?

Breagh is awful. Sorry.

strawberrypenguin · 21/02/2017 09:00

I thought Darragh was a boys name. Don't like either for a girl I'm afraid

JeSouhaite · 21/02/2017 09:03

Breagh sounds ok but really jars written down. Neither are awful but not nice enough to justify the repeating and spelling you/your child would have to do. Just my opinion though, my other opinion is that if you love it it doesn't matter what strangers on the internet think!

JeSouhaite · 21/02/2017 09:04

I would say though that it does matter what she thinks, so if he's really not keen, I'd think of something else.

Purplebluebird · 21/02/2017 09:14

I would probably spell it Brea or something instead. Don't like the other one.

avaj · 21/02/2017 09:26

I like them both, although I've only ever met boy Darragh's.
I prefer the spelling Brea and Dara, although if you're in Ireland your spellings would be the norm.

chipsnmayo · 21/02/2017 09:27

Neither are great TBH, what about Briar?

avaj · 21/02/2017 09:31

I also know a Brigha which I think is the gaelic spelling. I think it's a really pretty name.

KlingybunFistelvase · 21/02/2017 18:14

Sorry, but I think both are horrid. Just personal taste and all that - the sounds are just not nice to me. I do like Brianna and Bryony. Darcy is ok too.

MissTakesOurMaid · 21/02/2017 18:26

Darragh would be instantly out for me as I thought that was a boys name. Breagh is very harsh written down, but nicknamed Brea/Bree is nice.

MrsMeeseeks · 21/02/2017 18:28

Darragh is a boy's name, surely?

DappledThings · 21/02/2017 19:50

Darragh is definitely a boy's name
