I prefer Ossian because it seems a bit more straightforward in proununciation, makes me think of fossils, and also I really like the whole ancient-poet-hoax backstory. Oisin is cute but would get butchered by most English speakers ("wee-sin?" "oy-zin?").

Osheen is neat and has a really different international flair to it (it sort of reminds me of east Indian names). O'Sheen would be cool too, though I know that totally destroys the actual relationship to the name Oisin and I'm sure is a totally made-up name (I'm still waiting for the Mac-phase to die out and the O'Names to take over, they have all the adorable ruffian qualities and sparkle that the McNames are rapidly losing)
