[Opinions] Irish names help... for a friend

A good friend of mine is expecting his first child (a boy). He is Irish (from the Republic of Ireland not Northern Ireland) and they're looking for strong Irish names. The mn will be Patrick. Do you have any suggestions for the happy couple?

I don't know if these are really common where they live but I adore Cian, Conall, Declan and Donovan (which may strictly be a surname there). I especially like Conall Patrick.

I love Irish names.
How about:

Declan Patrick (my all time favorite)
Fionn Patrick (FIN)
Eammon Patrick (AY-men)
Lorcan Patrick
Seamus Patrick (SHAY-mus)
Tadhg Patrick (TYG) - like tiger without the "er"
Oisin Patrick (O-sheen)
Quinn Patrick (though I prefer Patrick Quinn in this case)
Cillian Patrick (KILL-ian)

Let me know if you're friends like any =)

Do they live in Ireland? If so, then pronunciation isn't an issue and I can let loose. I'll assume that they do:

Eamonn Patrick
Malachy Patrick
Desmond Patrick
Finbarr Patrick
Fergus Patrick
Colm Patrick
Cian Patrick
Rian Patrick
Ciaran Patrick
Declan Patrick
Tadhg Patrick
Ronan Patrick
Rory Patrick
Brendan Patrick
Naoise Patrick
Oisin Patrick
Seamus Patrick
Aengus Patrick
Fionn / Finn Patrick
Niall Patrick

Hello!

I'm back from vacation / visiting family. I'm still in a different time zone, so I may sound loopier than usual for a while.
