WDYT Irish names for a girl

[Audrey]

Hi,

My baby girl is due in November and I would like to give her an Irish name. I would appreciate any comments, opinions or suggestions on the following:-

Niamh (or should I spell it Neave?)
Orla
Eilis (pronounced Eye-lish or Aylish)
Talulla
Aisling (pronounced Ashling)
Sorcha (pronounced Sorka)
Bridget
Maeve

I was thinking of Ellie, Molly or Marie for a middle name.

Thanks in advance for your help

Hi
I also love Irish names, DD1 is Catlin (irish gaelic form of the scots gaelic Caitlin). While we *should * really pronounce it cat-LEEN, we thought it best to say it as you spell it (so she's CAT-lin). Even so, we still have people confuse it with Caitlin (which is pretty understandable).

So if it is going to drive you nuts when / if people mispronouce her name, perhaps select one that looks that same as it should sound.

ps. I do like ALL your names , but is Niamh becoming too popular now?

Cheers

I really like Bridget and agree with the above comment. It might be hard on your little girl if she is always saying and spelling her name correctly for people.

Hi

I quite like your names... I like Niamh, but perhaps would spell it Neave (?)...

How about Tierney? I'm pretty sure that's Irish...

Cheers!

I though Niamh was pronounced Nyah??

I love Mairead and Sorcha
