[name_m]Hi[/name_m] Berries,
The DH and I came up with the name [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Ireland[/name_f]. We love it, it’s very much our style and we like that it’s a nod to his heritage. Our other front runner for a girls name would be [name_u]Morgan[/name_u]. I was looking for a middle that’s equally as quirky and spunky as [name_f]Ireland[/name_f]. I am considering “[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f]” but not sure. What would you put in the middle spot with [name_u]Morgan[/name_u]? Hoping to find the perfect celtic middle. Thanks! 
So, you want a name like [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] or [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]? [name_f]Orlaith[/name_f] or [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]?
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Aoife[/name_f] is lovely
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] is nice, but that spelling is accredited to Native American origins. [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] isn’t really Irish.
[name_f]Tuilelaith[/name_f] ‘‘twill-lay-lah’’ is the original Gaelic name (or thereabouts) and can be Anglicized as [name_f]Talulla[/name_f], but with this spelling only.
These are a few commonly-known Irish names with Anglicized variations (their Gaelic spellings are listed for a few names, mostly the ones that are still used in that form in [name_f]Ireland[/name_f])…

[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Aisling[/name_f] ([name_u]ASH[/name_u]-ling) or [name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Aislin[/name_f] ([name_u]ASH[/name_u]-lyn) - you could even spell them [name_f]Ashling[/name_f]/[name_f]Ashlyn[/name_f].
And finally some names that are fairly unknown in the USA with Gaelic spellings…
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] Siofra (SHEE-fra)
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Clodagh[/name_f] ([name_f]CLO[/name_f]-dah)
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Eilis[/name_f] (can be spelled [name_f]Eilish[/name_f], it’s said EYE-lish)

[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Mairead[/name_f] (MIR-aid)
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Saoirse[/name_f] (SEER-shah)
Another idea: what about [name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Emerald[/name_f]? As in, the [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] [name_f]Isle[/name_f]? I’ve always thought it was a lovely way to honour [name_f]Ireland[/name_f] and [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] feels very current.
Thanks for the suggestions! [name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] is right up my alley, but I know it will be too much for the DH. He’s a bit more conservative. So my top picks would be:
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Aisling[/name_f] (this spelling appeals to me visually)
And maybe [name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_u]Finley[/name_u], I just don’t know if it’s too unisex.
[name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_f]Eire[/name_f]
