    www.crosswinds.net/~daire/names/main.html

    www.hylit.com/info/Names/index.html

    Behind the name www.behindthename.com has a section 'names by usage' which lists names seperated by cultures. I think there is an Irish list.

    I love Celtic/Irish names, these are all the faves I can think of:

    Boys: Aidan, Casey, Cian/Kian, Cillian/Killian, Finn, Kieran, Owen, Liam, Manus, Patrick, Quinlay, Quinn, Rory, Ronan, Rowan, Ryan, Tadgh (tie-g)

    Girls: Aine (on-ya), Aoife (ee-fa), Bridget, Caitlin, Caoimhe (kee-va), Devla, Erin, Eveny, Graina, Keavy, Keely, Kiara, Saorise (sair-sha)

    I've always wanted to name a son either Shamus or Liam. I haven't found a daughters name yet that I am completely sold on.

    I liked Aislinn, it means Vision/Dream, and it helped me finally understand my Irish gf's email (aislinn_vision):D

    My name's gaelic! It's Sorcha. But it's really spelt another way, my parents phonetasised (sp?) it.
