    Odhran O Conchubhair of course.

    Studies show that American employers are more likely to hire a Tom Murphy.

    A phone book is too much effort, and Google is a mystifying beast?

    Literally in less time it took you to write your original post, you could have googled "Popular names in county Tyrone" and got this

    "Common Surnames in Tyrone: Loughran, McGurk, Grimes, Monahan, Heagney, Skeffington, O'Neill, Harte, Clarke, McCusker, Quinn, Mullan, Kelly, Donnelly, Gallagher, McKenna, Campbell and Hughes"

    Then just stick any name in from, there you go, typical Tyrone name.

    And thus Shakira McCusker was born.

    Two ready made names right there, Clarke McCusker and his lovely wife Kelly Donnelly

    You should write a novel.

    You're already ahead of the OP. Lead character AND love interest.

    Clarke McCusker, a native of Fivemiletown, and previous bigshot drummer in the Cavanaleck Pipe Band, and his dirty taig of a new wife are about to be find out.

    Will he stay true to those Loyalist roots, and give her up, or will love shine through, and his Red Hand Defenders tattoo get a course of laser removal?

    Subplot involving the growing friendship between the local GAA star Loughran McGurk and Campbell Hughes, the son of the UDA man who crippled his father, a Catholic RUC officer, in a botched attack although neither knows his father. Both of whom are now bitter alcoholics.

    The OP said he was deported to the Americas.

    You know that fadas don't travel well.

    Well then his name will be changed to Oran O Cruhore

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    In all seriousness, I don't wanna knock the wind out of your sales, but if you're a novelist shouldn't you come up with the names yourself? rather than starting a thread on an internet forum. Kinda lacks originality and imagination.

    Ah come on....wind out of your SAILS!
