Irish boy names?

Question

Anyone know of any good Irish baby boy names, preferably ones that start with a K but anything good is helpful too.

Answer 1

Well there'd be very few that start with a K (since they wouldn't likely be authentic, but rather trendier variations of actual C names), but Killian does come to mind. Since Kilian, with one L, is the valid German form, this is a fairly accepted Anglicization.

Non-K options might include ...

Cillian - the original ;)
Cian
Angus
Colin
Conall
Conan
Declan
Desmond
Dillon
Eoghan/Owen
Fionn/Finn
Hugh
Lochlan
Lorcan
Malachy (mal-a-kee)
Niall
Oran
Seamus
Sean
Tiernan
Tierney

Beware of listings such as "Aydin" or "Conner" claiming them to be Irish. They aren't, though Aidan and Connor are accepted Anglicized spellings of Aodhan and Conchobhar. If you're interested in more authentic Irish options, you might find this site useful. ;) http://www.babynamesofireland.com/
