Northern Ireland is an interesting microcosm in the world of naming. You can see how it balances more traditional Irish names (as well as what's trending in the Republic of Ireland) along with the influence of the U.K. (mainly England).

Noah
James
Theo (which I prefer as a nickname for Theodore - which is also on this list)
