Irish boy name needed

Boy Names
1

Hello!

We are team green here and getting NOWHERE with names, especially boy names.

Our son’s name is [name_m]Cormac[/name_m], which we still adore. We just can’t seem to find another boy name we like as much!

A few criteria:

  • Nothing too common. (Sorry, [name_u]Aiden[/name_u], [name_m]Liam[/name_m] and [name_m]Declan[/name_m].)
  • No F names. (It would make the initials FAT.)
  • Fairly spellable.

On our girl list are [name_f]Brenna[/name_f], [name_f]Kenna[/name_f] and [name_f]Mairead[/name_f]. Family names we can’t use are [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] and [name_m]Callum[/name_m] (already taken by cousins). I’ve put a few names on my “eh, maybe” list: [name_m]Desmond[/name_m], [name_m]Angus[/name_m], [name_m]Kellan[/name_m].

Any thoughts?!

I think [name_m]Eamon[/name_m] goes well with [name_m]Cormac[/name_m]. It is recognizable but quite uncommon. I also think [name_m]Brecken[/name_m]/[name_m]Breccan[/name_m] goes well with [name_m]Cormac[/name_m].

If you like C- names, I would suggest [name_m]Callahan[/name_m] ([name_u]Cal[/name_u] is a great nickname!).
