HelpRe: What do you think of the name Irish?
in reply to a message by Quick Question
I have never seen it before. It seems to be very rare! But apparently has infrequently used for a long time. Mainly for girls!

(Also French and English get used. And of course German and Dutch. How interesting. English seems to have swapped genders in 1960 lol)
It's very strange to me, and would take a little getting used to calling someone it. But I don't think it's any worse, that way, than Ireland, or America, or London. I personally am not attracted to it mainly because I don't like the -ish sound.
