in reply to a message by seanh
All of these are fantastic names. I so love the sound of Irish names.
I see Shay is listed under boys names. I live near Boston, USA and I have heard of Shea several times, for girls.
I love Grainne, but would probably spell it Grania. In the 80s my Irish penpal used to write of her friends Sinead and Grainne, and I had no idea how to pronounce them. I'd never heard of them. My mother and I puzzled over those for quite a while.
I so love Eileen and Aileen.
