    • DÓNAL
      • Xoán
        • Amias

          • Origin:

            Latin

          • Meaning:

            "loved"

          • Description:

            Amias or Amyas is a unique name with an attractive sound and feel and a lovely meaning. Though it might sound like a Biblical name, it is not, but is a surname that may be related to Amadeus or even be a male version of Amy--which would make it one of the few boys' names to be derived from a girls'.
        • Asa

          • Origin:

            Hebrew; Japanese

          • Meaning:

            "healer; born in the morning"

          • Description:

            A short but strong biblical name with multicultural appeal, Asa is enjoying new visibility thanks to hot young actor Asa Butterfield of Hugo fame.
        • Alder
          • Bendt

            • Description:

              Bendt is a masculine name with Scandinavian origins, particularly common in Denmark. It represents a Nordic variant of Benedict, which derives from Latin 'benedictus' meaning 'blessed.' The name has been used in Denmark since medieval times and continues to maintain modest popularity in Scandinavian countries. The distinctive spelling with the 'dt' ending gives it an authentic Nordic character that sets it apart from more common variants like Bent or Bengt. While rare outside of Scandinavian communities, Bendt offers a distinctive option for parents seeking a name with European heritage and meaningful religious undertones. Its brevity makes it practical while the unusual consonant combination gives it a memorable quality.
          • Byrne

            • Description:

              Byrne is a masculine name of Irish and Gaelic origin, derived from Ó Broin, meaning "descendant of Bran." The name Bran translates to "raven" in Gaelic, giving Byrne associations with this intelligent and mystical bird. Originally a surname common throughout Ireland, particularly in Counties Dublin and Wicklow, Byrne has transitioned to occasional use as a given name. It carries a strong Celtic heritage and projects a sense of ruggedness and tradition. While relatively uncommon as a first name, Byrne appeals to parents seeking a distinctive Irish name with historical depth. Its single-syllable strength and unique sound set it apart from more common Celtic names.

            • Origin:

              Irish

            • Meaning:

              "little slender one"

            • Description:

              One of several Anglicized forms of Caolán, this spelling is borrowed from the Old Irish root, cáel. The pronunciation is also slightly Anglicized, as the original name may be pronounce KWAY-lan, KEE-lan, or KWEE-lan, depending on regional dialect.

              English

              "rocky water"

              English

            • Meaning:

              "from the walled city"

            • Description:

              This stuffy English surname and hotel name took on Twilight cool when attached to vampire Carlisle Cullen. Inspired by the character, it's more popular in this spelling than as Carlyle and more widely used for boys than for girls.
          • Carlyle

            • Origin:

              Variation of Carlisle, English

            • Meaning:

            • Description:

              Carlisle is more popular than Carlyle for both genders, and in both spellings more widely used for boys than for girls. It's a name we see on the rise in either spelling.
          • Colin

              English diminutive of Nicholas or Irish and Scottish

            • Description:

          • Cyriak
            • Daku
              • Eino

                • Description:

                  Eino is a masculine Finnish name derived from Germanic elements, ultimately a Finnish form of names containing 'ain' meaning 'one' or 'alone.' Popular in Finland and among Finnish-American communities, Eino carries cultural significance as a traditional Nordic name. It rose to prominence in Finland in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, influenced by Finnish nationalist movements. The name is characterized by its distinctive sound and straightforward pronunciation (AY-no). While uncommon outside Finnish communities, Eino represents Finnish cultural heritage and has maintained steady usage in Finland. The name may appeal to parents seeking a simple yet distinctive name with Scandinavian roots and a strong cultural identity.

              • Elias

                • Origin:

                  Greek variation of Elijah, Hebrew

                • Meaning:

                  "Yahweh is God"

                • Description:

                  Strong, charismatic, and sleek, Elias has followed in the footsteps of Elijah and Eli to become a popular choice among parents today.
              • Ezra

                • Origin:

                  Hebrew

                • Meaning:

                  "help"

                • Description:

                  Ezra has a lot going for it: the strength of its heroic Biblical legacy, its quirky sound, and its fresh but familiar feel. Ezra is now at its highest point ever, but its intuitive streamlined spelling and deep roots could make it a worth successor to Elijah in the Top 10 -- or even to Liam or Noah at Number 1.
              • Finn

                • Origin:

                  Irish

                • Meaning:

                  "fair or white"

                • Description:

                  Finn is a name with enormous energy and charm, that of the greatest hero of Irish mythology, Finn MacCool (aka Fionn mac Cuumhaill), an intrepid warrior with mystical supernatural powers, noted as well for his wisdom and generosity.
              • Fionn

                • Origin:

                  Irish

                • Meaning:

                  "fair or white"

                • Description:

                  Fionn, the modern Irish form of Finn, is more popular in Ireland these days than Finn, which is rising fast in the U.S. where Fionn is virtually unknown. That's probably a good thing, because few Americans would know that Fionn and Finn have the same root and are pronounced the same, like the fin of a fish. It's the namesake of a great hero from Irish mythology, Fionn MacCumhaill, who acquired divine wisdom by eating an enchanted salmon of knowledge.
