You can't do much better than Daire's "Celtic, Gaelic, Irish, and Scottish Names" site...just go to Yahoo, type "CGIS names" in the Search box, and it'll be the first site listed. Extensive lists of both first and last names, with credible meanings and pronunciations. I've found it to be very well-researched.Rather an informative and literate message board, too, altho not chronically warped and irreverent like this one. I used to post there frequently 3 or 4 years ago, and may start showing up again. (That's either an enticement or a warning - your call.)Good luck,Da.

If internet sites aren't helping, you could do worse than to invest in a book......try amazon, or a good bookshop...

And if you sadly don't want to invest in a book, then try your public library. It's free.

...or you could try looking into a university library and try an interlibrary loan. :)
