So, although I live in New York, I am of Irish decent. I have always thought that I would like use a Irish name for my child/children.
Anyway...I found a site online that has a lot of Irish names. These are the ones I liked. A lot of them I don't really consiter that Irish..bc they are very common in America. But I like them anyway

Daniel would be as a middle name since I have a grandpa, uncle and cousin all with it as a first name

You should come here. It's great. But check the weather first, it's been raining for about 3 weeks solid. :(

In Irish, C is always pronounced with a hard C-sound, like K. For the soft C-sound, we'd use S. So Ciara is pronounced "Kee-ra". I think there is a singer Ciara which is pronounced "See-ah-ra", though, so maybe for the US, Kiara will save trouble!
