What is Sadhbh’s sister called?

[dinosaurkisses]

Due dc2 next spring- boys name sorted as we’re using a family name. Having more trouble with a girls name.

Dd is Sadhbh (pronounced Sive, rhymes with 5) which was DH’s pick. Ideally would go for another Irish name, but every irish girl’s name I’ve looked at is either

1. Hideous (looking at you, Gobnait) Or
2. very frequently used as it isn’t hideous (lovely names like Aoife and Ciara)

We are in Ireland so spelling etc isn’t an issue. I like Elinor, so it doesn’t need to be an Irish name (but I don’t love it).

Please hit me with inspiration- DH has just seriously suggested Blaithín so I’ve given up there.

What about Iseult?

I like Blaithin

Bronagh, Realtín, Síofra, Doireann, Etaoin, Aifric, Neasa.
My kids go to a gaelscoil and these are a few of the girls names there.

Fiadh is getting big. Have heard of a few babies in the past couple of years. It's gonna be the next Ailbhe, I can feel it!

Siún goes well with Sadbh.

I also once heard of a girl named Siamsa, which is just AWESOME!

DH has just st suggested Realt or Realtin

I got the spelling off the wiki page, clearly not right!

I do like Cara, but I worry about Sadhbh resenting her for having the easier name (not rational, I know).

I really like Muirrean, but it’s a bit of a tongue twister with the Mw sound.

I love Meabh and Caoimhe, but they’ve been used in the family already and I want to avoid any suggestion (even jokingly) that we’ve named baby after them.

I love Emer, also like Caoimhe, Orlaith, Siun and Muireann.

Iseult!

Dsis has suggested this with the nickname Sully which I though was very very cute

Muireann?
Aifric?
Meabh
Roisin also Roise
Fiona
Orlaith
Grainne
Fionnuala

2 of those are my daughters names!
Sadhbh was on my list too.

Well if we can't have Sinead yet how about Siobhan?

Clodagh?

Clodagh or Leondra

Eithne

Deirdre but will probably pronounced incorrectly in NI.
Eiish/Aillsh
Aine
Siobhan
Tara
Naoise
Raonaid
Meabh
Eabha
Ailbhe

Aifric is lovely.
Saorla
Síofra
Caoilfhionn
Orla

Clíodhna

My favourite's are Saoirse, Caoimhe, Aoife & Sadhbh.

Don't lumber the poor thing with Fionnuala.

*Luisne

Aoife
Niamh
Laoise
Gráinne
Eibhlín
All would be lovely with Sadhbh, however my favourite is Aisling. This would have been DS2's girl name. Please don't use Aoibheann though as it just has too many potential pronunciations and your DC will spend their life correcting people.

Sadhbh is my favourite Irish girls' name, I just love it. I'd call her sister Fiadh, which is my second favourite.

I couldn't use either as I had boys, and the English side of the family would've been

@RavenWings DH was trying to convince me (and probably himself) that Oonagh was a goer, despite not knowing anyone under 60 with that name

Isn't Naoise pronounced Knee Sha?
And Laoise Lee Sha?
I had them on my list
Love them both

Aisling
Aoife
Siobhan

Just call her after her favourite aunt

I feel like Oonagh might be a bit more wearable thanks to yer one from the Saturdays. Though I still can't imagine it on anyone not approaching retirement age tbqh.
