Girl name that goes with O'Brien

[pearlsandpetals]

Hi, we are currently pregnant and looking for a girl name that goes with our surname O'Brien. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!

Congratulations!

I would choose something with only 1 or 2 syllables. A longer name will be a mouthful, e.g. Emma, Anna, Kate, Hazel, Florence, Kathryn (rather than the longer Catherine, Victoria, Jennifer).

...and nothing ending in an 'S' otherwise the names run into one another.

Good luck choosing! We didn't choose dd's name until she was born. It was so hard to make a decision.

Sasha
Sorcha (or Saoirse)
Cerys
Leila
Rosa

Anything but Lily.

Congratulations!
I think O’Brien is a surname that goes with a lot of different names, letters and syllables. Here are some ideas that I think would be good options for the name of your daughter!

More popular names:
Emily O’Brien
Phoebe O’Brien
Ava O’Brien
Poppy O’Brien
Darcy O’Brien
Mollie O’Brien
(I think names that end in an ‘I’ sound work really well with your surname)

Possible consider some double barrelled first names?
Lily-Mae O’Brien
Hattie-Grace O’Brien
Ella-Jade O’Brien
Josie-Anne O’Brien

I also think some more unusual names would work great would O’Brien
Dixie O’Brien
Nora O’Brien
Winter O’Brien
Tate O’Brien
Mimi O’Brien
Paisley O’Brien
Elliana O’Brien
Ophelia O’Brien
Delilah O’Brien

I really like masculine sounding or nickname sounding names for a baby girl, particularly with a more feminine middle name
Devon Grace O’Brien
Denver Grace O’Brien
Sage Amelia O’Brien
Drew Valentina O’Brien
Quinn Sophia O’Brien
Marlow Candice O’Brien
Reese Catherine O’Brien

I really hope this helped!! :)

Emma O'Brien
Gracie O'Brien
Emilia O'Brien
Leah O'Brien

Belinda
Rosemary
Clare/Claire
Fiona
Ciara
Darina

Farrah O'Brien

I definitely think a 'y' (ee) sound I think...

Lucy
Nancy
Emily
Molly
Poppy

I agree @Amz6219 that "y" endings flow well with O'Brien but I don't think "a" endings do so well.

Just be careful with initials- Nancy or Norah are lovely names but I couldn’t saddle someone with initials spelling NOB.

We have an O’M name so had similar.

Darcy
Kitty
Sophie
Daisy
Beatrix
Alice
Ivy

Rosie

Just be careful with initials- Nancy or Norah are lovely names but I couldn’t saddle someone with initials spelling NOB.

This in spades just go through the alphabet and choose from first names that don't spell a word e.g.
Bethany = BOB
Ciara or Clare = COB
Daisy or Darina = DOB
Farrah = FOB
etc

Hmmm, methinks you are overthinking this Red Marauder.

Best to avoid KNOB in Ireland but the others wouldn't really matter on an island where a significant proportion of the population have a surname O'SomethingOrAnother.

Sally O’Brien (and the way she might look at you*)

Shelby
Monica
Summer

I have a similar surname and my first name starts with an O - I think the alliteration sounds great!

Olivia
Ottilie
Olive
Ophelia

First thing that sprung to mind was
Kate O Brien
Also Emma

Rosalind
Miranda
Rosanna

Molly!

Not Margot or Juno

or Briony

Clara O'Brien

First thing that pop in to my mind

Congrats
