Short Irish Boys names - suggestions?

[Chiliprepper]

Daydreaming about boys names - Irish but living in Scotland with the possibility of moving back in a few years. Have a Conall already

Like but don’t love:
Dara
Aodh
Eoin/Eoghan
Brian (wouldn’t use it outside of Ireland I don’t think)
Shay

Does anyone have any suggestions we could add to the list? Preferably short names I think

Ean - (okay Manx not Irish) - Ian
Sean
Hugo

I like Conall!

I like Shea but don't like the other spellings. No, I wouldn't think of Seamus.

I think Dara will be confused for a girls name in the rest of the world. At least I know a female Dara.

Brian feels dated to me.

Aodh sounds too much like you are just calling someone.

I like these:

Rory
Aidan
Aodhan

Ronan
Conan
Shea
Sean
Aodhan
Rían
Dara
Oran
Ciaran
Cormac
Caolan
Bradán
Niall

Enda

Pat

Shay a girls name? I live in Ireland and I honestly have never heard a girl called Shay.

Also I wouldn’t class it chavvy.

Flynn (not sure if Irish, but lovely)

Oh thanks I’m glad I posted. really like Enda but have never known any so still automatically think Kenny. Like Niall too and think it probably travels better than a lot of my other faves (Donnacha, Daithi)

Have Cillian, Cian and Cormacs in close friends/family, also Aidans and a Rory.

Good point about Oran in Scotland too!

Seàn - classic!
Love Tadgh and Liam too. I would say Conor but too close to Connell.

Colm
Enda

Depends on the accent, I wouldn't pronounce Seamus as Shay-mus I'd pronounce it as Shem-us.

If going for Shea spell it as Shea not Shay.

I think that's a mispronunciation rather than an accent thing? There's an 'ay' sound in Séamus, like in hay or may.

Big fan of Art here.

If you go for Tadhg definitely be sure to put the h in the right place - even on this thread too many people are spelling it wrong so that might give you an indication of how much trouble you'd have with it irl. I don't think it sounds like taig though, none of the Tadhgs I've known have had the piss taken out of them for that as far as I know

Pádraic?

Art
Donn
Dennis
Flann

Loving Séamas pronounced Shem-us.
His sister Erin gets called Errrrrn.
His wee bro'r Aidan known as Eedun.

I like Seamus also Flynn

Colm ?

I was coming on to say Cormac and Lorcan. I babysat twins with those names and they've always stuck in my head. Travel well too.

I like Ferdia and Ultan as they're easily pronounced outside of Ireland.

TADHG is correct spelling.

There is no correct alternative. Everything else is wrong.

It is not Tadgh or Thagdh or any other variation.

Suggestion:
Fiacra
Fiach
Ronán
Iarla
Oscar
Antóin

Some good names here.

Also, Conn.

Liam is actually growing in popularity in lreland at the moment probably because it's a lovely name. But don't expect it to be rare if you come back.
Aengus
Aodhan (Adawn)
Ramon
Senan
Killian

Luan
Oran
Hughie
Connor

I LOVE Ferdia!
