Baby Names

O.K. our 6th child is due in April. We do not know if it's a boy or a girl. Does anyone have any cool Scottish/Irish names to recommend? Our children's names are Erin Faith (girl), Declan Scot (boy), Morgan Greer (girl), Keelin Blair (girl) and Briannon Colleen (girl). We need names that end with "n" to keep the tradition going.

Of course, I hate sharing these things, ahead of MY opportunity to use them (hmmm...?!)

But here: possibly will use for a female middle name, if I have another daughter

Morgan is a (Welsh) boy's name; I know as my brother is called Morgan.

It can also be used for a girl and may mean either 'great queen' or 'bright sea'

You're right, it probably comes from Welsh. It's still Celtic.
