Irish/Scottish Surnames and First Names
What male or female names can you picture going well with the surnames:
MacCarrick
McFayden
MacClellan
O'Hearn
MacAslan
McGregor
McCuaig
McCuen
O'Sullivan
I prefer classic eccentric or classic unusual names. I would also prefer the names to be Irish, Scottish, Welsh, or English (No modern English please). If you think another name that doesn't fit those categories would go well, feel free to mention it.
Also, what do you think of the names:
Ciaran
Atticus
Flannery
Monaghan
Donnelly
IRISH
Carey
Cillian/Killian
Conall
Cormac
Declan
Donovan
Driscoll
Ennis
Faolan
Fearghas
Finnian
Keane
Lochlann
Liam
Lorcan
Quinn
Riordan
Ronan
Rory
Ruarc
Tiernan
Tierney
Uilliam
SCOTTISH
Aodhan
Eoghan
Boyd
Euan
Eoin
Ewan
Gilchrist
Gillespie
Ian
Innes
Lachlan
Lennox
Murdoch
Ruairi
Uilleam
I realize many of them are surnames but it is for a story, and not an actual child.

Cormac has consistently been one of my top five names for a boy for years. I adore it. I don't see it combining well with any of those surname, except perhaps O'Hearn. How about these:
Fergus MacCarrick
Donal McFayden ("DOE-null")
Patrick McFayden
Niall MacClellan ("nile")
Finbarr MacClellan
Rory O'Hearn
Brian O'Hearn (There was an Irish actor named Brian Ahern that I used to love to watch.)
Hugh MacAslan
Barry MacAslan
Malcolm McGregor [I went to school with one and I always loved his parents for giving making this name possible :-)]
Tadhg McCuaig ("tie + g")
Conor McCuaig
Alistair McCuen
Gareth / Garrett McCuen
Eamonn O'Sullivan ("AY-mun")
Diarmuid / Dermot O'Sullivan
Good luck!
