I love it- it was a finalist on my name list! Agree people will probably mix up the I and E a lot.

Seriously, it's a fine name. Don't run your name by people on the internet. As long as you aren't naming your kid something like "Battery" or spelling it with a bunch of weird bonus letters, it's fine.

I see it relatively frequently. Nothing wrong with it.

Not a fan. People will constantly mess up the spelling and say it incorrectly.

All of our names as Americans come from other countries (mostly in Europe). How are we picking and choosing which ones are acceptable? What’s the criteria?

Love it - I don't think you have to be Irish - as long as you don't have a super ethnic name on the other end. I don't think Kieran Rigatoni would sound great. Kieran Smith would be fine, though.

Why not? I know someone with this name who isn’t from Ireland or even ethnically Irish.
