Names for a female Irish terrier pup?!

Pet Names
1

[name]Hi[/name], we are adopting a female Irish terrier puppy this weekend and she needs a name! Irish terriers are playful and feisty, with short wiry red coats.

I am interested in finding either an Irish name or a name that plays off her color. We don’t want anything longer than two syllables.

Here is what we have so far:

[name]Penny[/name]
[name]Poppy[/name]
[name]Sienna[/name]
[name]Ember[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Rory[/name]
[name]Hogan[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Darby[/name]

Right now, [name]Penny[/name] is our favorite. But we’d love your suggestions. As you can see from the list, we aren’t too strict about the names being Irish or meaning red. Anything that brings to mind [name]Ireland[/name], fire, red, or autumn would be great!

[name]Bridget[/name]
[name]Scarlett[/name]
[name]Auburn[/name]
[name]Crimson[/name]

I like [name]Ember[/name] as a name for red, but [name]Penny[/name] is so cute for a puppy.

I love Irish Terriers. They’re feisty but loyal and I’ve read that they’re good with children. I like [name]Bonnie[/name]'s suggestion of [name]Bridget[/name] and you could call her [name]Bridie[/name] which has an Irish feel to it. Here are some other Irish gems with my faves in bold. Good luck with your new puppy!
[name]Roisin[/name] - Irish for rose; pronouced rosheen.
Majella
[name]Rooney[/name]
[name]Clodagh[/name] - river in [name]Ireland[/name]
[name]Tara[/name]
[name]Oona[/name]
Fidelma
[name]Saoirse[/name] (seer-sha)
[name]Casey[/name]
[name]Niamh[/name] (neev)
[name]Shannon[/name]
[name]Grania[/name]
[name]Tallulah[/name]
[name]Delaney[/name]
[name]Flannery[/name] -means descendant of the red warrior!
[name]Clancy[/name]
[name]Tierney[/name]
[name]Maeve[/name]

Thanks for the names! We got her yesterday morning, and we’ve been calling her [name]Penny[/name]. It just kind of stuck, because it suits her perfectly. [name]Bridget[/name] was a very close second - we loved that one, too. Our top three were [name]Penny[/name], [name]Bridget[/name], and [name]Scarlett[/name], but she is definitely a “[name]Penny[/name].”
