Thoughts?

I am team green so Im working on a list of possible names for a little boy or girl. I would love to an Irish name for both a girl or boy but Im not set on it.  For a boy my husband and I like Keenan Lewis (Lewis is a definite it is a family name).  My family hates Keenan.  My husband also likes Tyler and Justin which I dont hate. For a girl I like Cora, Corinne, and Callie.  MN would be Marie or Elizabeth (again family names).  I appreciate any thoughts!  Thanks:)

Your family doesn't get a say.

I prefer Keenan MUCH more than Tyler or Justin.  They both are just eh to me.  You say you don't hate them, but by that I'm assuming you don't really like them either.  I like your girl names, I prefer Corinne Elizabeth.

Cora Marie is great!

Keenan is ok. What do you think about the boy name Kieran?

If you and your H like Keenan Lewis, tell our family to suck it.  If you both like it, and agree, use it. Your family will get over it. For a girl I really like Cora Marie.

Thanks!  My family said its not my favorite but...its your child do what you want.  Im a people-pleaser and while I understand that not everyone is going to love the name I would like them not to hate it.

 Ill ask DH about Kieran...I havent thought about it.  Thanks for the suggestion!

I know that it's very, very similar, but I prefer Kiernan to Keiran. Just another option!

I like Keenan a lot! I also like both Corinne Elizabeth and Callie Marie. Cora seems harsh to me. Have you considered boy's names Kian, Tobin, or Tiernan? Just a few Irish picks from my list :)

And since you seem to like C names for girls, may I suggest Colleen? It is one of my favourite Irish names but I can't get DH on board

Tiernan was on my list for a girl!  My DH isnt crazy about it but I LOVE it!  The only Tiernan I know is a girl so I just assumed it was a girls name!

Out of your boy names, I prefer Keenan to the other two.  As far as the girls go, I like Corinne the best.

Keenan is NMS, but it's much better than Tyler and Justin. What about Kellen or Kieran?

I love Cora and Corinne with the MN Elizabeth.

It doesn't matter what your family thinks; it's not their baby.

I think Keenan Lewis is nice and uncommon.

Cora Elizabeth is very pretty.

I like Keenan, and also like PPs suggestions of Kieran or Kiernan. I far prefer those to Tyler or Justin. I like your girl names, especially Cora.

Some other Irish boy names you might like:

Connor, Declan, Keegan, Callum, Kellen/Kellan

I really like Keenan; much more than Tyler and Justin. If your family doesn't like it, then oh well. It's not their child! As far as your girl names go, I really like Corinne Elizabeth.

Love Cora Marie. I don't personally like any of your boy names, but I will say name your baby what you want! Your family doesn't get a say.
