Hey Moms! Name Poll Please!

DH and I love the name Eamon for a Chat Icon

We've told some family and friends, and some people (family mostly) say they've never heard of it. Chat Icon

Now I'm wondering if it sounds like something we made up!Chat Icon

Re: Hey Moms! Name Poll Please!

Last year my friend had a little boy in her class named Eamon (sounds like Damon without the D... "Ay-mon"). It's a very Irish name, I believe. His sisters are Fiona and Maeve. Really cute kids!

Re: Hey Moms! Name Poll Please!

I know a few Eamonn's Love the name!! It is an Irish name.

I wouldn't care what people think. Unless they are Irish most people never heard my daughters name Saoirse (Sear-Sha) before.

Re: Hey Moms! Name Poll Please!

I don't know anyone personally with that name, but historically Eamon DeValera was a past Taoiseach and President of Ireland in the 50s/60s, and was very involved in the Nationalist movement. I think it's a great name.

By the way Irish Tracy, I love the name "Saoirse."

I've seen it before (maybe a literary character?) but would be at a loss as to how to pronounce it.

Eamon(n) is quite a common-ish Irish name here in the UK...

Its nice if you are Irish, if you are Jewish...not so nice!
