[Opinions] Cathal and Mavourneen
Mavourneen might very well sound ridiculous to someone who is actually Irish, but since I'm not, it still flies as a name for me. :-) Equivalents to its sentiment that I'm familiar with (Darling, Honey, etc) are things that I'd find absolutely ridiculous as names, so while I'll say that I like Mavourneen very much for its sound, I have to also mention that I don't generally like terms of endearment as 'real' names.Cathal I just like a lot. Cathal Lawrence is a combo I was into for a while and still like.Edited to add that I also like, to varying degrees and with no consistency as to whether they're spelled the original or the Anglicized way:Faolan
Phelim
Proinsias
Odhran
MeallanFidelma
Bronach
Sibeal, sort of
