This name is so cool. Very masculine. By the way, the name is not even Irish, it's a modern form of an Old Norse name.

This name is really cool. I'm thinking about vikings when I hear the name. Sounds very Nordic.

The name Ossian may come from the Old Norse Odin (the name of a god in Norse mythology) which means rage, inspiration, frenzy. It may also come from another masculine Nordic/English name, Oswin, which means 'god's friend' or 'friend of the gods'.

It's a nice enough sounding name, but I think this particular spelling might be tainted by the fact that James Macpherson's epic was proven to be fraudulent / a forgery.
