HelpRe: Observations
in reply to a message by Glitzy Cate
I think there might be large regional and socio-economic differences (at least when I look at the report it is the feeling I get: region, age etc.).
Could you tell me how many girls named Fiadh you have met?
So nice that you are from Northern Ireland, I love Irish names :)
Have you ever met a younger Fiona?
And what do you think about Fianna? I read in a forum that it is political and that people would give a mom who named her kid Fianna the side eye but not sure if many people would actually do that given that it is a top 100 name?
Please rate my list: https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/6232

Hi, yes your right, the names do vary from backgrounds, obviously the Irish names will mostly come from Catholic families and Protestants tend to go for typically English/Scottish/Biblical, although this can vary on both sides, the trendy names are certainly amongst both.
I’ve only actually met a couple of Fiadh’s, it seems to have trended very rapidly. Don’t think I’ve met any young Fiona’s and Fianna’s not a name that I’m familiar with but from Googling the meaning I would say it would be popular only in certain areas.
Still a bit sad that names are still very politically based here but we’ve definitely moved on a lot :)
