[Opinions] Re: Fake Irish?
in reply to a message by ADT
Naming your kid Aiden,Kennedy,Rory doesn't make them Irish. Most of them are surnames turned fn or they are pulled from literature. I would say not fake but assumed to be Irish. Dylan,and Rhiannon are Welsh but many asuume they are Irish.A lot of Irish kids are named Thomas,Mary,Michael,Anne,ect.I don't think I will use them b/c everywhere you turn there's a child named an Irish name.It annoys the hell out of me to continously see cutesy spellings of these names.How many ways can you spell Reily,Caitlin,and Ryan?
I can't find any of theses trendy and popular names in my in my family tree throughout the generationseven w/ a maternal grandmother who was 100% Irish.
Brigid
Padrig
Deirdre
Helen
Mary
Kathleen not Katherine
George
Eileen
Seamus
these were in my tree.*************************************************
