[Opinions] Index of interesting Male Irish Names
Here is a list of Irish names that I was not familiar with. I found them in an index of Irish names. Both the Gaeilge and anglo spelling are used. the pronunciations are an attempt to duplicate the Gaeilge with modern English sounds.I really love some of these. What do you think?MALE:
Áirdin Ardin
Amalgith, Amhalgaidh, and Augholy = Awley
Bairrionn Barin
Barhan Baran
Cáel Kale
Caoinleán Kinlan
Céadach Kaydock
Criofan Criffin
Damhán Davin
Eolann Olan
Fáelán Faylin
Iarlaith Yarla
Laisrén Lossren
Murchadh Murrough
Niallán Neilan
Piaras Pierce
Rúadhán Rowan
Solamh Solav I'll post the female names later!

I love Irish names, but I'm not a huge fan of any of these names. I guess I do like Iarlaith, now that I think about it. Airdin, Amalgith, Faelan, and Ruadhan are nice enough, too.Do you really like Irish names? Have you seen this site? http://www.lorrainequirke.com/irishnames/
If you go through the alphabetical Whole List section at the top, there are a lot of names that aren't in the database here so at least I hadn't seen a lot of them before. Found some pretty neat ones.

Most of these are new to me. I like:Ardin
Awley
Cael - the only original spelling I can see trying to actually use
Davin
Olan
Neilan
Pierce
RowanMurrough - does the end of this sound like the word, "oh" or the word, "rough"?

These are very interesting. I like (using the anglicized versions) Ardin, Baran, Kale, Kinlan, Davin, and Rowan.
