Carmody…Gaelic/English: Descendant of Cearmaid
I have liked Carmody (car-muh-dee) since I heard it as the name of a town in a movie.

Another idea is Kerrigan, don’t know the origins of that one other than it is a surname. GL!!

Blaire/Blair would be great.

Camryn is too popular.

Greer is too wierd (to me, anyway).

I like the suggestion of Kerrington; I would also suggest Kerrith or Devon.
