I’ve been crushing on the name [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m] lately (pn. keer-an) and I’m wondering if if works with my vibe or not for boys?

Other boys names on my list are: [name_u]Bobby[/name_u], [name_u]George[/name_u], [name_u]Alfie[/name_u], [name_u]Henry[/name_u], [name_u]Freddie[/name_u], [name_m]Louis[/name_m], [name_m]Tommy[/name_m], Finley/Finlay, [name_u]Liam[/name_u], [name_m]Luke[/name_m], [name_u]Ollie[/name_u], [name_u]Jamie[/name_u], [name_u]Joey[/name_u], [name_u]Bertie[/name_u], [name_u]Niall[/name_u], [name_m]Cian[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], [name_u]Dean[/name_u]

So, does [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m] seem like a good fit for our list? What kind of vibe does [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m] give off to you?

Thank you!

I think it fits! It’s Irish and popular in the UK like some of your other choices! [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m] has a sort of rugged but sweet feel

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

I love [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m]! Obviously it’s a bit different style from a lot of your nick-namey boy names, but it fits the vibe fine. Especially w/the Irish ones on the list. It’s awfully close to [name_m]Cian[/name_m], so you wouldn’t want to use both of those of course. But anyway, it’s a great name. I think it’s a good balance of artsy & smart & sporty & charming. It’s unique too. Maybe a little tricky with spelling & pronunciation, but not a deal breaker. [name_f]My[/name_f] six year old nephew is [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] pronounced the same way. Adults sometimes have issues saying it right, but kids always figure it out no problem. :joy: I prefer the spelling [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m], because I think that it looks more authentic. But my nephew, [name_u]Kieran[/name_u], is a super sweet even keel super athletic fun guy if that helps you at all. :slight_smile:

The sound of the name fits in, definitely, but the spelling of it feels out of place with all of them except [name_m]Cian[/name_m], of course. It’s just so Irish. I feel like [name_u]Kieran[/name_u], if you’d consider that spelling, would fit in better with the rest of your predominantly [name_f]English[/name_f] list. But, of course, it makes sense if you are particularly attached to this spelling, and it’s really not a deal-breaker by any means! [name_m]Just[/name_m] a thought I had when considering how it fit with your style as a whole. :slight_smile:

Thanks everyone! While I do like [name_u]Kieran[/name_u], I always struggle to spell it correctly thanks to [name_f]Keira[/name_f] Knightley’s name - her spelling of [name_f]Keira[/name_f] is really common where I am so I’m almost inclined to spell it like hers, even though it isn’t the spelling I’m after :rofl: The [name_m]Ciaran[/name_m] spelling eliminates that for me at least!
