How is it possible that you have three of my top four boy names on this list? Haha

PS: the 4th one in my top four is Declan. Right now Nolan seems to be in the lead, since it is also a family name. GL!

My DS is Kellan - so obviously I love it - and our other name we went into the delivery room with was Nolan, which if we have another boy will be his name.

I also like Gavin, but its Welsh

I also like Keiran, Cullum, and Conner

Sean was also on my short list

Cillian

Here are other Irish names ...

Good luck!

rach2100 · May 2010

Like Finn, Patrick, Quinn, Connor and Donovan

MelodyKate · May 2010

I like all of those except Kellan. I also really like Patrick, Connor, and Collin.

HoneyandJam · May 2010

Sean! It's so classic and really isn't used much anymore. It's also one of the few Irish names where you can use the traditional spelling without having to constantly to explain how the name is pronounced!

Jessi6-14-02 · May 2010

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I love Sean and Declan too, but not with our last name, Dean.

I am leaning towards Nolan. Though my Dh is not a fan.

Cormac

Kieran

Seamus

We went with Irish names for DS - Connor Doyle. Connor is one my DH loved, and Doyle was my grandfather's name.

You also have fabulous taste!

There are so many great names on this thread! I'm definitely bookmarking it.

I'm not really trying for Irish names, it just seems like all of my faves happen to be in this category (except Rhys, which is Welsh).

Carilyn · May 2010

I like Kellen and Finn the best. Lachlan is right up there, though. I don't like Nolan for personal reasons, so not the best person to ask! I don't think you can go wrong with Kellen, Finn, or Lachlan, though.

Thank you - and we weren't either, but it is just the sound and meaning of the names we liked. My DH picked Kellan bc in our baby book it said it meant "Little Companion" and since it was our first and a boy - Dh said he would be his little buddy. Kellan calls DH Bobbob instead of Dada - so I guess he got his wish - lol!
