I prefer Cillian. I wouldn't use Tiarnán as I'd never pronounce it with a long vowel sound at the end.

Rowan.
Tieran will get misspelt and seems surnamey, and I doubt that Tiarnán will get the right pronunciation.
Cillian makes me think of Murphy, and also Kylian Mbappe.

I like Tiarnán

Rowan is my fave, it’s got such a lovely, soft, romantic sound. Tiernan/Tiarnan is also fine (sorry can’t do accents on phone) though I don’t like it as much as Rowan. Really not keen on Cillian - it has a harsh sound to me.

Oh ffs Tieran will get misspelt
It wasn't deliberate. Blush
