Aoife Blu vs. Aoife Topaz vs. Aoife Serenity

Hey there, i’m having a baby girl in September and cant decide on a middle name for her. My husband, Tom’s mother is Irish and we wanted to honour this by choosing an Irish first name. We already have a son called Zion Ensor Lloyd who’s 2. If you have any other suggestions they will be warmly welcomed. Thanks Maria, Tom, Zion & Aoifex

Thanks we spent a few weeks looking at Irish names and this was our favourite. After we had decided we told Marianne (Tom’s mum) and she fell in love with it she couldn’t believe that we had chosen a name to honour her. She later told us that if Tom had been a girl he was going to be called Aoife which was such a coincidence as we were completely unaware of that:D

Aoife Shannon (Irish river)
Aoife Shandon (Irish place name)
Aoife Kerry (Irish place name)

Other ideas for an Irish first name (with middle name ideas):

Niamh -- ("neev")
Connemara -- Irish place name / area, nn Mara?
Emer -- ("EE-mer"), from folklore
Liadan -- ("LEE-dun"), from folklore
Emerald
Maeve -- kick-[removed] queen in folklore ("mayv")
Hibernia -- more of a middle name idea, Roman name for Ireland
Lismore -- Irish place name
Kinvara -- Irish place name
Grainne / Grania -- real name of Grace O’Malley, clan leader, called "pirate queen" ("GRAHN-yuh")
Sheridan -- Irish playwright
Granuaile -- O’Malley’s nickname, = bald Grania. She cut her hair to look like a boy and stole away on her father’s ship ("GRAN-yuh-wayl") -- more of a middle name idea
Tara -- Irish place name
Boudicca -- rebellious Celtic queen ("BOO-di-cuh")(your own Queen Boo-Boo?)


Maeve Esmeralda
Kinvara Hazel
Emer Penelope (love mixing mythologies)
Niamh Granuaile
Boudicca Valkyrie -- don’t mess with her
Sibyl Igraine -- Celtic King Arthur’s mother ("i-GRAYN")
Erin Cathleen
Maeve Bantry (Bantry = Irish place name)
Gabriela Kinsale (Kinsale = Irish place name)

Much luck! :0)

Thanks FredaCat, we really liked some of those names but due to weeks of research for a first name and Marianne loving the name so much we can’t change that. We do however like Aoife Sparrow and Aoife Snow. Thanks :)
