Irish Babies Names
March 25th, 2009
Here are the top 100 names for new born babies in Ireland in 2007. While “Bertie” is nowhere in the list the name “Brian” is just outside the top 50. It will be interesting to see how many children called “Barack” will be born in 08/09. There is a good chance however that the future leader of Ireland could be a Jack or Sarah, probably not an Enda though.
