Looking for an Irish boys name…

[BungleofWimbledon]

Really struggling to come up with an Irish boys name.

I do like Fionn, but we already one in the family, and I’m stuck for anything else that I can imagine myself hollering in the playground.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Oisin is my favourite Irish boys name at the moment!

I love Fionn!

Also really love
Oisin
Oran
Tadhg
Conall

Finn/Finbar or Blaney/Blane

Not sure how popular these are currently but here you go:

Flann, Flannán, Flannagán - means bright red. A very popular name for both male and female.
Fraoch, Fraochán - "Fráech mac Fídaeg, a Connachtman, was the most handsome man in all Ireland and Scotland and was the son of the fairy woman Bé Finn."
Gaoth, Gaoithín - "clever, wise" I'm guessing this is the same name as Welsh name Gethin.
Glass, Glassán - meaning green, grey, grey-blue. Glass mac Dedaid was a king of Munster. There is a St Glassán.

Thanks all.

Tadhg is currently the front runner.

Iarla
Conn/ Conall
Eoin/ Eoghan
Ardal
Seán
Daire/ Dara
Turlach/ Turlough
Ruadhán/ Ruán/ Ruan
Senan
Donnacha
and some others with an Irish feel:
Roddy
Matty
Noel
Patrick/ Paddy

Thanks all.

Tadhg is currently the front runner.

Ah, good 😃. It's a great name.

I love
Cian
Rian
Tiernan
Conleth

Tadgh is lovely as well.

@BungleofWimbledon but he’ll forever be correcting people on how to pronounce his name. I have a Gaelic name and I’m forever correcting people (never in Ireland) It’s so annoying after a while!

I also think the English pronunciation of certain Irish names is really harsh. For example, cormac rhymes with tarmac in an English accent. In Ireland it’s almost like “Cormuc”. Far nicer.

Aodh
Donnacha
Daithi
Oran
Odhran
Tiernan

Oisín is my favourite.

@TatianaBis

Oisín is my favourite.

Love Oisin, but we already have one.

Why does always come up on Irish name threads. Is it so hard for people to listen and repeat back the name?

I wonder this too.

Donagh is a very nice name, I think. Don't hear it around much though, don't understand why.

Donagh is lovely! Dammit, I need another kid now.

Senan
Rian

@loveisanopensore It really is hard for people. But then I have a very out there name. It’s usually most annoying when having to explain it when I meet people abroad.

Nessan (good if you have a limerick cnnection)
Dualta
Garvan

if you want an Irish name from my later parents generation call him Sonny or John-Joe :)

Please not another Cillian! There are THREE at my son's nursery....

Or that classic of the late 1970s, John Paul.
