[Opinions] Eamon
I've liked the name Eamon since first hearing it used on a character in a movie a couple months ago. I loved it's Irish Gaelic heritage but thought it a bit hard to pronounce and so passed it up on my favorites list for more old-fashioned names such as Simon, Miles and Edmund. Recently learning that Eamonn is the Gaelic form of Edmund I've started to love Eamon a bit more. It's also not quite as popular as Ian and Aidan which have similar sounds but are so popular! So I'm looking for MNs for Eamon now and wondering if it sounds nice with Ciaran (my favorite boy's name) as a bother.
My other favorite boys names are Simon, Jack, Colin, Miles, Andrew, Nathaniel, Henry.
Two combos I've been considering are Eamon David and Eamon Arthur, maybe Eamon Carmichael? Any suggestions would be grand!A list of my current favorite combos is here: http://ladybugnames.bravehost.com/combos.html

I really love it. I love David too but Eamon David is too much AY.Eamon and Ciaran are terrific brothers! Eamon Michael would be great but Carmichael is awful.

I think Eamon Jack would be a cute name combo.

I adore the name Eamon. I prefer the Eamonn spelling, but I'll take it almost anyway it comes. :-)Eamon David is a wonderful combination. Both names strike me as bright and sparkling, so they combine beautifully. Eamon Laurence is my favorite combination. Others you might like:Eamon Pascal
