Synopsis
This book revives the beauty, meaning, and humanity of old Irish names, bringing them from dusty records back into living speech. Each entry gives the pronunciation, gender, origin, meaning, and cultural background of the name, along with small story snippets that make it feel real and memorable. It offers readers clear guidance on how names were used in history, poetry, and tradition—whether saintly, mythic, or local—and explains how Irish names evolved through language contact and time. The writing is simple, friendly, and accurate, making it accessible for parents, teachers, writers, and name lovers who want truth without heavy scholarship. Designed as a bridge between academic research and everyday readers, the book helps people choose or understand names with confidence, respect, and joy. It reminds us that every name carries a story, a lineage, and a living connection between land, language, and love.
