Ailish Roan
(or Ailish Wren)
i'm strong irish and love gaelic names and celtic culture. and there's a strong chance babe will have my strawberry blonde hair and the freckles i had as a kid. <3
what d'ya think? other than it sounds like eye-lash. i know this, found a fb group for people w/ the name (never know what you'll find w/ google) and even tho many mention the eye-lash thing, there's an overwhelming majority who express pride in having it.
you have to say it just right (isle-ish) to maximize it's sound. i particularly love the unique 'ish' ending, as opposed to the typical 'y' or 'a' girls always have. and i like the strong sound of Roan to balance out the softness of Ailish.
however. i'm open to other mn suggestions.
naming this girl is so much harder than naming my boys. have no idea why. one of the things i find myself doing is pretending a cute little girl in the grocery store has the name, and evaluating it from that angle. so far so good.

Like Roan more than Wren as middle name
