  It's NMS.  DH & I are really into all things Irish.  We have Irish names on our list, but I don't think I would actually use the name Ireland.

  It is cute. I like it for a name.

  It has really good association with it. If you have ever been to Ireland then you would be proud to name your child that.

  I am sure that the baby will be made fun of because of her name, but kids will pick on your baby for a number of other reasons to. They are kids so you cannot not pick a name just because of that.

  I really like it as long as you or DH are Irish.  I wouldn't use it as we are not irish.  I nickname would be Irie?  Seems like more and more kids these days have unique names so I wouldn't think teasing would be a big issue with this name.

  I think it's nice and somewhat popular.  I think maybe Alec Baldwin's daughter is named Ireland.  If she has red hair like you, it would be cute to go with an Irish name -- Maura, Maureen, etc.  Here's a site full of them.

  I like it.  With all the "odd" names out there nowadays, I wouldn't be concerned with teasing.

  I'm sure it's a lovely country (I've never been there myself), but it's not a baby name IMO.

  It's ok.  Another thought is the name Irelyn.  That's my niece's mn and I think it's pretty cute.

  I prefer Irelyn to make it seem more like an actual name.

  I don't think there would be teasing unless it sounds really odd with your last name. I think its a cute girls name.

  I've always loved this name, just never could get it DH-approved.

  What about Erin? Erin (or Eireann, as I think it is spelled in Gaelic) means Ireland.

  Although I am biased. My name is Erin. And I prefer that to Ireland, I think.

  I think it's pretty. I also heard Irelynn lately. It sounds like Ireland said in an Irish accent. I think it's cute.
