    Caílte (or Modern Irish Caoilte)

    In Irish mythology he was a nephew of Fionn mac Cumhail. He could run at remarkable speed and communicate with animals, and was a great storyteller. I believe Caílte was a cousin of Oisín. :)

    fuk off? if you dont like the idea of a a certain thread, dont enter it and dont go on to it just to tell somebody to fuk off as you yourself asked people to do on the What's with all the rape threads? thread. I might be making myself sound like a fussy, picky tit by saying this but i just dont see the point in people acting the dick for no reason

    Also surprised in seeing a Mod giving you the thumbs up...

    Touchy much? I'm joking - there's nothing nasty meant.

    I would pick Erika, Jessica or Avril for a girl. For a boy James,Seanan(pronounced sin-in), Jack or Jessie

    That's like me saying I'm going to call my child David, pronounced Jack.

    Seriously, where the hell are you getting sin-in from Seanan? :confused:

    I think that's how Seanan is pronounced...Sin-in.I went to school with a Seanan,he was a prize prick.

    Its also like saying how do you get Shove- on from Siobhan .

    I don't know why teachers have a thing for translating everyones names to Irish.

    Tell me about it, my daughter currently has "that's not my name" tattooed on her forehead rather than constantly correcting her teachers. Just because she speaks Irish doesn't mean that she is pronouncing her own name "wrong". Grrr. :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭Scioch


    If its a girl call her Chernoble

    If its a boy call him Hiroshima

    Cher/Hiro for short.

    Aisling for a Girl
    Jacob for a Boy :)

    I don't think it matters what the first name is as long as danger is the middle name

    Believe me - using the word 'danger' or any of its equivalents in one's name - bad idea.

    Agreed. You're given the name you're given, you don't need to change your name because you're learning Irish.

    Cletus is a name you don't here much these days. Must be due for a comeback?


    Yup Cletus for a boy or Clitoris for a girl.


  • Registered Users Posts: 50 ✭✭Ecarg


    Or for short
    Seb,
    Iggy,
    Ais, or Alfie


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭Scioch


    What about Ermahgerd for a girl and Y U NO for a boy ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,473 ✭✭✭Wacker The Attacker


    What about Dave? Dave the baby. Dave the baby who likes to play darts.

    My cousin had twin boys recently and called them Galen and Cadel. Really love the name Cadel and I usually hate Irish names.

    Jenna is a cute girls name and will work well with Chloe.

    Neither are Irish names. They don't even sound Irish either.

    If it's a girl call her truffle, if its a boy call him toffee.

    I realised what that meant only last week. Bit slow me. :o

    I think 'Hero' for a boy would be deadly.

    "Hero?"
    "That's me!" :D

    My kids at the moment are called Aidan and Chloe and we dont know what we are having next.

    Pretty sure the doctors told you it was a baby. A kitten would be a nice suprise, but I'm going with a baby based on past form.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,351 ✭✭✭NegativeCreep


    You don't want to give him/her an extra special name because it'll overshadow the other kids names and you don't want that!
    Andrew for a boy and Fiona for a girl?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,939 ✭✭✭maxwell smart


    Boy: Hunter

    Girl....Huntress?
