This traditional Irish baby boy’s name is growing in popularity

We love this traditional name

If you’re looking for a classic name for your baby boy but want to avoid anything too modern, then we may have found the perfect one for you.

We’re always keeping an eye on baby name trends, but there’s one that never goes out of style.

Irish baby names remain as popular as ever, but new parents are opting for shorter names for their children, especially if they welcome a baby boy.

The name Finn has been growing in popularity in recent years, and we’re not surprised to see it.

It is set to become one of the most common Irish baby boy names in Ireland.

The name Finn is of Irish origin and means both ‘fair’ and ‘blessed’.

Finn may be rising in popularity, but one Irish boy’s name is losing popularity.

According to the CSO, only five parents chose this Irish name for their sons in 2024.

The name Daimhin is falling in popularity, but the meaning behind the name has won us over.

The Irish moniker means ‘little deer,’ which is an incredibly sweet choice for your baby boy.

Parents may not love the name Daimhin, but other Irish names are growing in popularity.

Cillian, Fionn, and Tadhg are hugely popular with new parents, and all three names are featured in the top 10 baby boy names of 2024.

Rían has proven to be a huge hit with new parents, which comes as no surprise.
