What your two favorite Irish names, one girl and one boy? They don't have to strictly Irish (such as Patrick!) just have a lovely Irish flair.

Mine are Ciaran & Eithne, I'd love to hear yours! :D

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Maeve and Tadhg, though I love many others.

Logan: Hey, listen, I need you to do me a favor.
Dick: It's not that favor that Bobby Brown does for Whitney, is it?

Ooh tough one. I love so many Irish names.
For a boy, Liam. Brendan and Aidan close runner-ups.

For a girl, Maeve. Niamh and Grania close runner-ups.

I really couldn't pick just one!

There are so many I like!

Boys: Liam, Oscar, Ryan, Finley, Donovan, Brendan, Brodie, Connor, Brady

Girls: Brianna, Maeve, Caitlin, Teagan, Siobhan, Shae, Maeve, Keira, Kelly, Kayley, Kathleen, Christy

My very faves would be Liam and Shae though I'd say.

This is really hard!
For boys its Connor (but I also adore Aodhan, Aonghus and Sean)
For girls it is probably Caoimhe or Saoirse...I really can't choose!

Opinions from an Irish girl: Niamh and Kieran

It's so hard to choose!! My favorite for a boy would be Kieran, though, and for a girl, Niamh.

Cathal and Mavourneen

Even though Mavourneen comes from a phrase, I still love the sound of it. I don't know if Irish people would find this to be a ridiculous name or not but oh well; just because I like the sound doesn't meant I'm going to be using it, so it's kind of a moot point. :-)

I rather like it!

I think it's really nice. One of my favorite Gaelic sayings comes from the song Súil a Rúin where the last line of every verse is Is go dtéigh tú mo bhóirtn slán or "a blessing walk with you my love / my darling".

I also have been liking the sound of Páistín (Pastheen) which comes from another Celtic song An Paistin Fionn (The Fair Haired Youth). I like it because it's rather like other Irish names Kathleen, Roisin, Doreen, Maureen, Pegeen, ect. :)

It's funny but Patrick is my favorite Irish name and it's in my top 10 list. For girl's Irish names, I really like Maura, Maeve, and Bridget.
