[Opinions] Re: Some Irish names
in reply to a message by poetic_freedom
I Love Irish names! though I do not think I would use one in real life just due to the fact that if others heard the name they wouldn't be able to spell it and if they saw it they wouldn't be able to pornounce it.
The way I see it, if I ever did name my child an Irish/welsh/scottish name it would be their middle name and I could use it as a nn while if they wanted at school or wherever else they could use their first name which would be more normal.
Unfortunately I think only Seamus is really useable (although I love Aiofe).
