[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tells me “Trying too hard to be unique”.[/quote] How is it unique? Ciaran is a wildly-popular name in Ireland. In my family, most of whom are second-to-fourth-generation Americans from Ireland and Wales, Americanizing the spelling of a Gaelic name would be the move that would have others scratching their heads. We spelled our children's names the Gaelic way-- Niamh (not Neve), Aine (not Anya), and Cillian (not Killian). It isn't unique; it is honoring our heritage. [/quote] Hate to break it to you, but Ciaran is not “wildly popular” in Ireland. If you wanted that, you’d name your kid Jack. https://www.cso.ie/en/releasesandpublications/ep/p-ibn/irishbabiesnames2022/mainresults/[/quote]
