From my family tree, girl’s name (can’t be too clear with this group):
Vera
Also a very nice weapon.
Oonagh/Unagh/Una is pretty common Irish girl’s name.
I do personally agree that Irish girl’s names are a bit on the guttural side, and the nicer ones have obnoxious spellings. I much prefer Irish boy names, but most of the good ones are now very common (Ryan, Aidan, Ciaran, Cillian).
I can make a pretty good guess at the age of my patients in my current GP practice in Belfast, which is in a Nationalist (Catholic) stronghold.
Attracta, Perpetua, Carmel, Cornelius, John-Paul, Geraldine, Benedict, Eugene, Fidelma- all over 40.
Saoirse, Caomhin, Aoibheann, Aednat, Roise, Rionach, Muireann, Ultana, Coinneach, Deaghlan, Aengus- under 15
Ryan, Ronan, Bridget, Mary, Kathleen, Patrick, Declan, Dermot, Liam, Brian, Ciara- any age.
Our daughter’s name is Deirdre, and we love it - thankfully, she does too!
Ah yes, a genuinely lovely name Monty Python’s ruined for me; Coronation Street didn’t help.
It’s unlikely I will ever be a father, but I am fascinated by names. My tastes in names are eccentric.

Name her Antea. I know you said nothing that ends in la but check out Acushla. It means “beat of my heart”
I’ve always loved the name Kerry for a boy. Not so uncommon when I was growing up; probably not so common now.
Also good for a girl, but probably more common.
I just read this the other day, it says that one in five parents regret the name they chose. I’d especially watch the “too-creative” names, personally. For what it’s worth:

Also, congrats!
I like names like Kerry and Tracy for male sims, but you’re right, they’re not common boys names anymore.
Haha. Someone’s been watching the movie Harvey.
I only have ideas for girls but these are all names of people I know, but I only know one person with each of these names.
