List Of Irish-Language Given Names
This list of Irish-language given names shows Irish language given names, their anglicisations and/or English language equivalents.
Not all Irish given names have English equivalents, though most names have an anglicised form. Some Irish names have false cognates, i.e. names that look similar but are not etymologically related, e.g. Áine is commonly accepted as the Irish equivalent of the etymologically unrelated names Anna and Anne. During the "Irish revival", some Irish names which had fallen out of use were revived. Some names are recent creations, such as the now-common female names Saoirse "freedom" and Aisling "vision, dream".
Some English-language names are anglicisations of Irish names, e.g. Kathleen from Caitlín and Shaun from Seán. Some Irish-language names derive from English names, e.g. Éamonn from Edmund. Some Irish-language names have English equivalents, both deriving from a common source, e.g Irish Máire (anglicised Maura), Máirín (Máire + -ín "a diminutive suffix"; anglicised Maureen) and English Mary all derive from French: Marie, which ultimately derives from Hebrew: מַרְיָם (maryām).
There are more historical Irish given names than can be found on this list, e.g. rare Middle or Old Irish names from the Middle ages, but it would be impractical to list them all since there is practically an infinite amount of possible names and variants.
