English names in Ireland
When did English names come into common use in Ireland? Would it have been normal for someone born in Ireland (who was Irish, not Anglo-Irish) around the mid-18th century to have an English name, or were Gaelic names used almost exclusively? Thanks in advance!http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/87410
