Like any?

MEER uh.

I’d prefer Meara spelled Mira.

Mira Alice Flanagan
Molly June Flanagan

I like Molly Victoria, Molly Natalia, & Molly Bridget. I like Meara Joelle, Noelle and Eileen. Katherine ends in the N sound and DH has a daughter from a previous marriage named Katie Scarlett so any Kathryn, Kaitlyn, Kates are out. We aren’t really in to old fashion names like Estelle, Ruth, Blythe. I can think of all kinds of mns for Molly but Meara is hard--I love the name but just am having a hard time finding a mn to match. Our last name doesn’t make it easy. Thanks for the suggestions. Any others? I am hoping to find the perfect name.~Jen

DH grandmother spelled her name Meara but Mira does look nicer, doesn’t it? I don’t think it would matter how I spelled it, do you? It would still honor her and it is still pronounced the same. I think it is pretty.~Jen

Mira Eve and Molly Elizabeth would be lovely.

I love alot of these suggestions for Meara. I like Eve, Whitney, Avery, Alice. I hadn’t even thought of any of those names. I am going to run them by DH and I like the spelling Mira, too. Thanks so much. If you can think of any other names, please leave a comment. I’ll check back tomorrow.~Jen

out of what you’ve said you like, i like Meara Joelle, Noelle, Eve, Whitney & Alice, i don’t think it will matter if you change the spelling, my mum is Allison and to honour her i want to use Allyson, more suggestions..

It matters how you spell Meara because it mean joyful in Gaelic. Mira however means bitter in two different langueges, and has no Irish back round at all. Trust me there will be people who will pronounce wrong Meara all the time, but if you want Mira to be pronounced the same way as Meara then you’re crazy. E and I make different sounds. I really hope that you went with Meara, because the grandma or mom of your husband probably would have been [removed]ed with you for giving your kid a Latin name. And Meara is very easy to type on a keyboard. You could have gone with Meara Catriona Flanagen or Meara Maeve Flanagen.
