Ailish

[Daphnedolittle]

Thoughts? To go with DS Rory.
I have posted before about Ciara. We are still considering Ciara but I'm really liking this. Potential nickname could be Aily.
Living in UK, half Irish baby.
Thanks!

Is it concerned an old lady name in Ireland then? DH wasn't sure as he moved away so long ago.

*considered not concerned

Ooooh, Ciara all the way! But you are spot on with the mispronunciation, but a quick correction and it's mostly fine. I never thought it would present such a problem, to be honest, it's fairly straightforward as Irish names go...!

It's definitely not an old lady name in Ireland.

It is OP. It'd be the Irish equivalent or something like Carol or Linda or Patricia etc

No, not considered an "old lady" style name, just rare. I had friend by the same name when I was a kid, always loved the soft sound it makes. It's a really beautiful name.

Agreed, not an old lady name, just a rare & lovely one.

I like both Ailis & Ciara, both go well with Rory.

It is very pretty

Eilis is how it is spelt
