For our new baby on the way, I’d very much like to use an [name_f]Irish[/name_f] name (if we have a boy, girl name is pretty solid right now). However, it seems like the general [name_f]Irish[/name_f] boys names don’t appeal to me much…Aiden, [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Liam[/name_m], etc. I think they sound too soft and flowy to my ear? Lots of vowels, Ls, and Ns? [name_f][/name_f] I do like [name_m]Patrick[/name_m], but not a fan of [name_m]Padraig[/name_m]. [name_m]Cormac[/name_m] is in the same vein. I think I can also get behind [name_m]Seamus[/name_m], but mostly bc it could get me the nn [name_m]Jamie[/name_m].

[name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any suggestions for me? [name_m]Strong[/name_m] sounding [name_f]Irish[/name_f] boys names? Could also be Irish-American (ie, Patrick).
