Does anyone know any good Irish/Gaelic/Celtic names? I really like names like that, and since I'm part Irish I was curious if there were any good Irish names.
And I noticed there are a lot of Gaelic names that have AE in them, like Kaelen, and I really like that for some reason and I don't know why. lol So if anyone knows any please let me know. :D


Thanks =) ~Amanda

I love Orla or Orlaith (which is pronounced the same). The name means "golden lady" or "gold queen". Eire, pronounced eye-ruh, is also one of my favorites. She was an Irish queen who named the country after herself.
