Baby Name Poll Results

Eamon rhymes with Sea-mon. I’m not a fan, sorry!

No, it doesn’t. It’s AIM in. Can you not read?

I knew a kid in college named Eamonn with two ns. We pronounced it like a-men (amen), which is what I suspect people will say with your son. I have also heard the name pronounce ee-mun.

I have had a kid named Eamon in classes and no one has ever mispronounced his name. I like Eamon Caddock.

I voted for Eamon Lysander, but you might also like:

Eamon Aldric
Eamon Broderick
Eamon Casimir
Eamon Cassander
Eamon Cormac
Eamon Cyril
Eamon Garrick
Eamon Llewelyn
Eamon Marius

Eamon is so, so handsome. It’s one of my favorite Irish male names. I prefer the double N spelling to signal that it is not going to follow normal English pronunciation. But Eamon is nice too. And yes, it’s "AIM-in / AY-mun." It’s getting more well known and worth a correction or two.

Eamon Giles is inspired. Great combo. Eamon Lysander too. Caddock isn’t flowing as well with Eamon to my ears. Caradog (kah-RA-duk") or Carrick would. ( http://www.behindthename.com/name/carrick/submitted .)
