ArchivesRe: Popular names in Ireland
in reply to a message by penguiny7
I don't, but if you're interested in finding time-appropriate names, you should consider going through genealogy lists. It only took me about ten minutes to do just that, and here are some names that came up multiple times:
Margaret
Hanora / Hanorah / Honorah / Honora
Catherine
Bridget
Ellen
Mary
Maria
Kate
Sally
Anne
Elizabeth
William
James
John
Michael
Patrick
Timothy
Denis
Peter
Thomas
Edmond
Cornelius
I took these from a list of baptisms of people by the surname Ryan--the list went from around 1700 to the 20th century, but I just looked around 1815 and 1900 for you. :)

And if you enter a different surname here, you can get a whole new batch: http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/search.cfm

Being gay doesn't make you a bad person. Not wanting kids doesn't make you a bad person. Perhaps crushing the bones in one little girl's hand makes you a bad person, but that was an accident.
A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.
