I like Conall and Cormac

Monsterstep · 05/12/2024 13:53

I really like Cormac, Sean and Declan. Don’t like Dec so probably wouldn’t use Declan myself.

Fupoffyagrasshole · 05/12/2024 13:55

I like conall

wanted to call my little one that but my husband didn’t like it

we went with Seamus

I like Conall out of your list but if I were Irish and could get away with it, I absolutely love the name Oisin.

I would choose Cian if I was Irish. My other favourite Irish boys' name is Faelan.

RobertaFirmino · 05/12/2024 14:30

How about Caoimhin?

My favourites are Ciaran, Cian and Sean.

What about Odhran?

Whatisityoucantface · 05/12/2024 17:05

Cormac for me! Lorcan and Ronan also great and easy to spell and pronounce

Normallynumb · 05/12/2024 17:18

Connal and Niall are my joint favourites but all of your names are lovely

Liv999 · 05/12/2024 18:08

I love Cian, Eanna also a great Irish name

Same. Beautiful names.

Never heard of conall, I know two girls called Caoimhin (sorry RobertaFirmino !)

I adore Donnacha (don’t know the right spelling!!) and Owen, Fergal, Conor and Brian

Would you be pronouncing it Ciarán or Ciaran?

Coffeeaddict14xo · 05/12/2024 18:24

Spelling with the accent

Niall - like it but don't know if it's Nye-ul or Nee-ul
Conall - It's ok
Ciaran - like but I know too many middle aged Kierans
Declan - like it, but know a few
Cian - not kee-un (sorry, couldn't resist)
Cormac - not sure
Sean - like but know lots of middle aged ones

(I know lots of middle aged Neils but I still like it)
