Lonán -This sounds so off to my ears. I definitely prefer Lorcán or Lachlan.
Torin -Sounds Scandinavian, but I like it.
Tadhg -It looks really cool, but I prefer Teague.
Feidhlimidh (or Feidlimid) -Prefer Feidhlim or Fionnán.

I love Lonan. Almost as much as Ronan. And Tadhg is fine, but I can only see Tag. Torin is okay. I prefer Feidlimid.

Lonán — seems similar to Ronan. I kind of like it.Torin — I know this isn’t a trendy name, but it just *sounds* like one to me. I’m not a fan.Tadhg — isn’t this a slur in Northern Ireland? I guess it would be an OK name in any other countryFeidhlimidh — I have no idea how to pronounce this, so I’ll withhold judgment. Does anyone know how it’s pronounced?
