[quote=Anonymous]I love the name Saoirse. I know it's a hassle but it's gorgeous and I keep circling back to it whenever I think of other names. I think it may be the one. But I'm not Irish. Well, I sort of am. Like every other white person in America, I'm a quarter Irish and DH is as well but we're not particularly connected to Irish culture or communities. Is it appropriate to use the name or is that awfully plastic Paddy of me? I think the general consensus on names is you are welcome to use ones from cultures that aren't yours but Saoirse has strong political connotations and is so deeply Irish so I'm not sure if that still applies, though I would love it to. Thoughts? [/quote]
