    Plenty of lovely options along those lines! Our own list was composed mostly of names of exactly that sort, plus a few timeless classics (regardless of origin). ;) I'm certain you'll soon find one that's just perfect.

    Did you want only Irish and Welsh, by the way, or is general Celtic equally desired? To use a male example, Iain/Ian is technically the Scottish form of John, but still not an unusual choice for an Irish or Welsh child. In other words, many, such as Fiona, are fairly interchangeable, despite specific origin (or have more than one accepted meaning/origin).

    Here are a few of my favorites. ;)

    IRISH

    Ailsa*

    Aine

    Aisling

    Alannah

    Alastriona

    Aoibhin/Eavan

    Aoife

    Bedelia/Bidelia

    Beibhinn/Bevin

    Catriona

    Clodagh

    Devanie

    Devnet

    Eilis(h)

    Eithne/Enya

    Elspet(h)*

    Fainne

    Fallon

    Fidelma

    Finola*

    Fiona* (often related to fion, meaning "vine," when used as an Irish name)

    Firinne

    Grainne

    Grier/Greer*

    Imogen

    Isla*

    Lachina*

    Liadan

    Lile

    Lileas/Lilias/Lillias*

    Lorna*

    Maeve

    Mairenn

    Maura*

    Moira*

    Morrigan

    Neilina*

    Niamh

    Oonagh/Una

    Orla

    Richael

    Roisin

    Saoirse

    Siobhan

    Talulla

    Teagan

    * Threw in some Scottish options as well, just in case (many of which have Irish ties/roots anyhow, or are simply used in both cultures). ;)

    WELSH

    Aderyn

    Anwen

    Branwen

    Bronwen

    Carys

    Ceinwen

    Ceridwen

    Delyth

    Eleri

    Ffion

    Fflur

    Gwendolen

    Gwyneth

    Isolde/Esyllt (wasn't quite sure where this best fit -- Celtic myth, Irish princess, Welsh root, various translations LOL)

    Mairwen

    Meredith

    Morgan

    Myfanwy

    Rhian

    Rhiannon

    Seren

    Tegan

    Tegwen

    GREEK

    Althea/Alethea

    Antigone

    Ariadne

    Calliope

    Chloe

    Chloris

    Daphne

    Electra

    Eleni

    Eunomia

    Evadne

    Helen(e)

    Hermione

    Ianthe

    Irene (love the less common ee-RE-nu pronunciation)

    Iris

    Nyx

    Penelope

    Phoebe/Phoibe

    Selene

    Theodora

    Xanthe

    Zoe

    I included a few from Greek or Irish/Celtic mythology as well. ;)

    You can find the meanings of many of those here. http://www.behindthename.com/

    This site is also a great resource for more Irish names (complete with background and audible pronunciations, if needed). http://www.babynamesofireland.com/

    Hope that helps!

    The number one complaint of women is that men don’t listen. When a woman is talking, listen to what she is saying. Read here http://attractanywoman.emuy.info/?0j3t

    Don’t watch her mouth and wonder what it would feel like to kiss her. Don’t stare at her chest and imagine what she looks like naked. Really listen to what she is saying then give an intelligent response, preferably on the same subject.
