Oran.

I love Gaelic names too, here's some for you:

Caelan (original spelling is Cailean) means 'child', Liam means 'helmeted'?? (my boys names )

Owen
Callum
Quin
Orin
Roane

[Tinks]

Tadhg pronounced Tige

[*Efjay*]

Some different suggestions there, thanks



Owen - Kinda too close to Evan??
Rhys - This one always comes up on our list but it feels like a naughty boys name (Malcolm in the Middle I think LOL)
Kynan - Ki - nan?
Vaughan - I like this one but dh doesn't.
Niven - How do you say it?
Giles - hmmmm does it suit the others? Is it too old a name on a baby/child?
Ailean (pronounced E-lun) means "rock" or "nobel" - Gaelic - E-lun or E-loon?
Nevin means "saint" - Gaelic
Lorne - scottish place name - mmmm another maybe, will suggest to DH
Torquil (pronounced Tor-call) means Thor's helmet - Not sure I like the sound of it in my head but DH would love the meaning.
Oran - Makes me think of Orson of Desperate housewives.. But I like I like Orson anyway, will have to look up the meaning etc
Tadhg - Tige...? Like Tiggy?


Those are all the ones I will have a second thought on the others I didn't comment on I don't like, but thanks .

A neighbour's boy is called Tyne (after the river). Bit different but not weird.

We had Patrick Mackenzie picked out for a boy. Mainly because Mackenzie means "son of the handsome one" (see my sig)

[lilima]

How about Seamus?

[*Efjay*]

Oh no no no sorry I should have put that in the OP. Big fat no to Hamish, Angus or Seamus LOL Sorry they are just wayyyy to scottish for me & it bugs the crap out of me that my Mum suggests them every single time LOL.

Niven - How do you say it?

Pronounced Neh-Ven, sounds like Kevan.

Ailean (pronounced E-lun) means "rock" or "nobel" - Gaelic

I've only ever heard of it as E-lun

Torquil (pronounced Tor-call) means Thor's helmet - Not sure I like the sound of it in my head but DH would love the meaning.

I know this one is a bit out there, makes me think of the Black vulcan from Star Trek, hehe

Another one I thought of was Shae, pronounced Shay, means "Hawklike - graceful, free, courageous", is also Gaelic

[TaRhLi.]

We had Irish/Celtic names all picked out for these boys - Liam & Cale (can also be spelt Cael or Kael) but DH has now said no to Cale so it looks like we are now going with Liam & Rhys (although Rhys is Welsh the names still go together).

Good luck with the name, I've found it hard to find boys names I liked.
