So we are expecting DC2 and haven’t found out the gender. We have agreed on Thomas for a boy, but have no idea for a girl!

DD1 is Niamh if that helps?

Ellen came to mind when I read Niamh but now I’ve seen it suggested I think Erin goes well with Niamh.

They are lovely names but I would probably avoid things like Aoife and Phoebe, because the vowel sound is so similar to Niamh. My DP and I have names with similar vowels, despite being totally different otherwise - think Richard and Pippa - and it's weirdly impossible to tell who is being called from somewhere else in the house. Both of us turn up or neither! It's very weird.

That said, Aoife is lovely so I absolutely wouldn't blame you.

Thanks for your thread, I have a four week old Niamh, maybe I'll get to return to this list one day. Smile
