    F names or VERY Irish names - NEVERMIND! ANY NAME!

    My children are Grace, Gavin, and Finnegan. If this next baby is a boy, he will be Declan. Tentatively (if I can't find anything else I love), a girl will be Faith. While I think Faith 'works' with the other names nicely (it's a virtue name like Grace, and it's an 'f' name like Finn), I just like it BECAUSE it 'works', not necessarily because I love it.

    So. I have to meet one of two things for a girl name. It has to either a) An 'F' name, or b) a name equally as Irish to Finnegan.

    And I prefer 'beautiful' names as oppossed to 'cutesy' names (although I'm sure that's very much up to the individual to decide).

    Throw them at me!

    **update** alright, I simply CANNOT find an F name or very irish name that I'm in love with... so how about just ANY name you think sounds good with my other 3 children?

    I do like Faith, but if you're still looking for a better name, here are my suggestions: Felicity, Fiona, Flannery, Siobhan (pronounced Shavonne and is the #1 baby girl name in Ireland), Fallon, Gemma, Niamh/Naeve, Maeve.

    Irish names... I've included Anglicized forms in brackets where the original Irish pronunciation is not intuitive to an English speaker.

    Aine (Anya)

    Aislin/Aisling (Ashlin/Ashling)

    Aoife (pronounced EE-fa, which might be a little difficult - but it's sometimes used as the Irish form of Eva/Eve)

    Bevin

    Bree

    Caitlin

    Catriona (Catrina, Katrina)

    Caoilinn (Keelin)

    Caoimhe (Keeva, Keavy)

    Ciara (Kiera)

    Deirdre

    Eithne (Enya)

    Emer

    Fiona

    Liadan

    Maeve

    Maire (Moira)

    Niamh (Neve)

    Nora

    Quinn

    Shea

    Sile (Sheila)

    Sinead

    Talulla

    Una

    Best of luck! Smile

    I think Fiona would be a beautiful choice... it's Irish and starts with an F... fits perfectly with Finnegan but also is very feminine, yet simple, like Grace

    Or the name Fiora is stunning... also Irish and flows well with your other names

    I also think the name Frances would be a nice choice...  it's not Irish... but it fits well with our other children's names

    I think Eden is a cute name... I've only met one little girl with the name.

    The only draw back is it's very similar in sound to the VERY VERY popular Aiden

    Maeve is a great name! I also like Eden, Fiona, Niamh/Neve, and still love Faith.
