It's spelled Swedish, just so you know.
And Emma, Kaitlyn, and Catherine are not "Irish" names.

Emma is Germanic in origin, Catherine is Greek, and Kaitlyn is derived from Caitlín, which is an Irish pet form of Caitríona.

None of those names are Irish. Catherine is common in Ireland and Kaitlyn is a horribly creative spelling of the Irish Caitlin, and Emma is not even remotely Irish.
Anyway...some of my favourite Irish names (and most of my favourite names are Irish) are:
Girls-
Caoimhe (kee-va)
Siobhan (shi-vawn)
Saoirse (seer-sha)
Aoibheann (ee-van)
Norah
Niamh (neev)
Eimear (my little sister's name, ee-mer)
Aoife (my big sister's name, ee-fa)
Aisling (ash-ling or ash-lin)
Eibhlin (ave-leen)
Aine (my name, awn-ya)
Eilis (my mn, ay-lish)
Orla
Bridget
Brigid
Maeve
Maura
Siofra (sho-fra)
Boys-
Connor
Aonghus
Torin
Aodhan (aidan)
Tadhg (tie-g)
Sean
Seamus
Cormac
Daithi
Declan
Dermot
Eamonn
Fionn
Malachy
