Declan
What do you think? I've been liking this name a lot recently.

I like Declan a lot although my dh says it reminds him of "duckling."
Sounds like "decking" to me
Which could either refer to the deck of a ship, or punching somebody. Neither of which appeals to me as a given name, sorry!

I like it alot, for many of the reasons that Laurie listed. It is easy for people unfamiliar with Irish prn. to figure out, unlike some tradional Irish names. It is uncommon, yet it has a tradional style. I really like it.
I love it! Here in the US it's still relatively unheard of, but could be poised for an entrance with the popularity of Irish names. I had never heard of it myself until I read a Maeve Binchy book with a character by this name. It also has the advantage of being pronounced like it is spelled.
Love it!

I love Declan!
