Speaking as someone who has [name_m]Irish[/name_m] heritage. and has lived in different areas of [name_f]Ireland[/name_f] and the UK… They are completely separate names. [name_m]Liam[/name_m] is more often a name on its own in [name_f]Ireland[/name_f] rather than a nickname for [name_m]William[/name_m] or anything else. It would be like having two different first names.
