Irish boy names?

[IHate]

What are your favourites, please? Would like something slightly unusual (not ‘yoonique’, just not super common). No fadas or anglicisations (nothing with a K, for example).

Please let me know some that you like.

Where are you based? What names do you like?
Is the surname going to rule out certain names?
When is the baby due? Are there some names you won't be able to use because of siblings/close friends/cousins?

The names that I'm thinking of are very popular in Ireland, but not in the UK. (e.g.Tadhg, Fionn, Ruairi)

Colm is one of my favourite names

I love Ferdia or Fiachra. Or Ruadh.

We’re in central London. I really like Niall, Ruadhán (but don’t want fadas), Enda and Torin. I like Ruairi, DH not so keen.

Mixed culture double barrelled last name. Think Daly-Chaudry.

Oh, that is nice!

Duggan

I love Oisin

That’s lovely. Exact sort of name I mean.

Darragh
Malachy
Colm
Oisin
Enda
Ronan
Seamus
Tiarnan
Shea
Aidan

I’m Irish and live in Yorkshire and my son is Shay (Seamus officially but rarely called Seamus. No fadas to avoid confusing the English side of the family).

Loads of names I liked wouldn’t have worked with our surname but I also liked Connor, Cormac, Liam. I love Colm but think it might confuse people who weren’t familiar with it. Ditto Tadhg (which I ❤️❤️❤️), Diarmuid, Fionnan, Padraig.

We’re in central London. ...Mixed culture double barrelled last name. Think Daly-Chaudry.

Thanks @IHate .
I like Niall, but it Nee-ul/Nigh-ul ?
Enda - not sure, might get Edna
Ruadhán - I think it's Roo-arn (non-rhotic). Nice but might be tricky
Ruairi - will get said as Rory and misspelt a lot.

Something beginning in D like Darragh?
Play it safe and use Patrick? It's a lovely name.

I wouldn't pick Cian or Cillian or anything beginning with Ci/Ce/Cy.

Cillian
Catholic
Liam
Conor
Cian
Eoin
Enda

Catholic?

My favourites are Darragh, Shea and Conor. Think of I ever had another (which i wont) id defo choose one of those of a boy.

Torin is nice
Also like Oisin, Darragh and Finn

Lol - catholic was an autocorrect of Cathal - am not ensiwsong calling any child catholic!

Torin isn’t Irish, though!

@failtegusslan 😀

Tiernan
Turlough
Eamonn (maybe bit older mannish)

I also like Cillian but it might be too associated with Cillian Murphy.

Cealain is one of favourites. I’m not great with fadas so apologies if it has one.
Conor & Ronan are nice too.

Love Niall and Torin!

Eoin
Egan
Senan
Odhran
Caolan

Torin
ivo
patrick
tadhg
finn
murphy
quinn
oisin
ossian
flynn

Conleth (my favourite)
Emmett
Darragh
Conal

I adore the name Darragh and also love Declan & Liam. Jarlath is also great.

Tadgh- pronounced Tag

Iarla [ ear/ la]
Oran
Conor
Diarmuid [ dear/ mud]
And there are no ks in the lrish language so you don't have to worry about that
