    I dont like any of them im afraid.

    Regan is an anglicisation of Reagan which is a surname. as is Riley. They.re not used as first names in ireland so it always seem s strange to me when people give their children surnames as first names.

    Rylin and Taryn arent Irish nesm in fact they contain letters that dont exist in the Irish alphabet. People just think they sound Irish, I dont like that either.

    I like genuine Irish names like,

    Áine

    Aoibheann

    Aoife

    Doireann

    Caoimhe

    Deirdre

    Clodagh

    Catriona

    Treasa

    Siobhán

    Caoimhe IS stated KEE-va / KWEE-vah, reckoning on accessory. What you wrote is an ignorant handle Gaelic phonetics, that have no longer something to do with English phonetics. i like: Siobhán (she-vaughn) Róisín (ROSH-een, potential "little rose") Séarlait (shahrlot, Irish sort of Charlotte) Saoirse (seer-sha, potential freedom) playstation : that is spelled Niamh ("neev"), no longer Naimh.
