So, I've Been Bitten by the Celtic Bug...
At one time I didn't care for Irish and Welsh names, because they struck me as overly trendy, but I've gradually come to discover that I absolutely adore some Celtic names. The best part is, I've solved the problem of not having enough good boy names on my list. Here's my list, WDYT? I've included both English spellings (which I'd actually use) and Celtic spellings. Asterisks indicate names I really love:GIRLS
Nimue*
Neve / Niamh*
Fflur
Enid
Gwyneth
Elen
Bride / Brighid*
Carys / Cerys
Morwenna
Isolde / Iseult* (i-SOOLT)
Ena / Eithne*BOYS
Lachlan / Lochlann*
Calum*
Gareth*
Caedmon* - I think I have a new favorite name.
Ewan / Eoin / Eoghan* (YO-in) - This presents a small problem, since I don't prn Ewan and Eoghan the same way. Do you think Eoin would be more likely to be prn like YO-in by North Americans?
Owen
Ross - I doubt this will last long.
Nevin / Nivin / Naomhan
Cameron*
Shan / Sian - Is it wrong that I like this better for a boy than a girl?
