Thanks to all of you who responded to my post earlier today! Some great suggestions and unfortunately many ones that I love but cannot use for one reason or another. Still stumped! Anyone who’e not familiar with me, I was really going for an Irish or at least Irish sounding name to honor our family’s roots. Our other children do not have authentic Irish names so that’s not necessary for baby #3. Stepson [name]Mason[/name] has an Irish middle, and my daughter is [name]Brenna[/name]. [name]Both[/name] a little modern but not “out there.” In a rare moment earlier, my husband actually suggested a girls name (all I ever hear from him are boys’ suggestions, if any). He likes [name]Delia[/name]. It doesn’t have an Irish feel, but I thought about pairing it with an Irish name like [name]Maeve[/name] and started to like it… [name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name]. What do you think? Is the first name way too Greek sounding to go with my other kids and our “Mc” last name?
[name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] sounds gorgeous to me! I love both of those names. I think [name]Delia[/name] will sound fine with your last name.
My great grandmother’s name was [name]Delia[/name] and she was very Irish…[name]Delia[/name] McCurry. I think [name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] is a great combo and it sounds nice with [name]Mason[/name] and [name]Brenna[/name] as well. And if you and your hubby have actually agreed on a name I say go for it!
I know a [name]Delia[/name] MacN____ (she’s older) and it’s a lovely sounding name. [name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] is lovely, and it sounds great as a sibset
We are an Irish family and my aunt’s name is [name]Delia[/name]. I have always loved it and thought she got the best name of the seven siblings. [name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] is wonderful.
[name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] is divine. [name]Do[/name] it!
In totally swooning at the thought of [name]Cordelia[/name] [name]Meave[/name] nn [name]Delia[/name] for you. [name]Cordelia[/name] is Celtic Irish as well as Latin in origin not to mention Unbelievably gorgeous… It would be perfect!
[name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] sounds fabulous!
[name]Delia[/name] [name]Maeve[/name] is fantastic.
