Conor Edmund / Eamonn ("AY-mun")
Conor Michael
Conor Gavin
Conor Malcolm

Thanks!
I saw what you were saying about Conor / Connor and I agree. I used to not even know Conor was a legitimate spelling (everyone seems to spell it Connor here. Even my spell check puts a red line under Conor, but not Connor). I did have one terrible teacher named Mrs. O'Conner and I was wise enough even in elementary school to know Conner was a dumb spelling.
I like quite a few of your suggestions!
The ones popping out at me right now:
Conor Finlay -Finley is my favourite name ever (that spelling only because in Southern America, I trust no one to pronounce Finlay correctly.)
Conor Matthias
Conor Patrick
Conor Elias -Are the mixed cultures too much because I like how this flows?
Conor Niall ("nile")
Conor Edmund -Edmund has been growing on me lately too. I feel like my hipster friends are rubbing off on me.
Conor Ambrose / Emrys -♥
Conor Seamus
Siblings:
Conor and Desmond
Conor and Lucas
Conor and Malcolm
Conor and Eli
Conor and Max -cute! ♥
Conor and Julia

But Finlay is so perfect as is. (pouts) In the mn position, you don't think it's worth a more authentic spelling? How much trouble could the "-lay" ending cause there? It would be like setting an emerald (Conor) in a fake gold setting (Finley).
I love mixing cultures in combos. The Irish do it all the time. I love watching movie credits to cull for interesting names. Consolata Boyle is listed many times in movies filmed in Ireland. She's a costume designer, I think. Anyway, how romantic is that, Consolata Boyle? I know that's a fn / surname example, not a fn / mn one, but the effect is the same, to me. Others: Eamonn de Valera, Soledad O'Brien. So float away with Conor Elias -- he's a dreamboat.
Go, hipster friends, go!
Conor and Max do seem like brothers, don't they?
