Re: Aisling
in reply to a message by -=A=-
I've always been a huge fan of Rowan because it's short and sweet and I like the sound of it. Rowan Thomas is kind of bland to me but it's not bad. Lachlan Samuel is wonderful. I do have one thing against Lachlan though. Every time I see or hear this name I automatically think it should have a nickname but there are no suitable nicknames for it. Samuel has always been a favorite of mine and I personally can not find one flaw for the name Samuel. It's classic, handsome and again... I like the sound. I like Eamon William. You can never go wrong with William as a middle name because it has a lot of history and it reeks of strength. I pronounce Eamon like AY-mon. Bronwen Elinor just isn't sitting right with me, besides the fact that I can't stand Elinor. I picture a very cold and hateful, shriveled up woman when I hear this name. Plus I've never been a fan of very many 'B' names. Aisling Joan is an interesting combination and I like the sound of it. I also like the meaning behind Aisling but with it having that popular 'Ash' sound to it... it kind of throws me off of it.

Actually, I prefer the pronounciation EYES-ling, which I know is not correct, but I am borderline not caring what is the correct Irish pronunciation since I am American.
