My brother's name is Connor, he's half Ojibwe but on our mom's side we have Irish, Norse, Welsh, English, and a tiny pinch of Russian, according to Dna tests we all took.

My husband first didn't think i was serious. Until i was admitted to hospital with HG. He researched the symptoms and then realised how debilitating it is.

Your videos are really well explained, and I love the little bit of history behind the names. With the Labhraidh, I thought bh was pronounced as v, but it's a w. Does it depend on what letters are before or after it? Maybe you could do a video about the Irish alphabet and the different sounds letters make together x

disingenuous flattery in English is blandishment though that isn't widely used.

I’m a type 1 diabetic and also have HG and this has been so so difficult to manage my sugars it’s a roller coaster along with my emotions. I feel so depleted in every way

I’m so so thirsty but then I cry bc I know the minute I drink it I’m going to projectile throw up . Ugh this is miserable and my poor toddler . Mommy can’t even play with him

This is so true, thank you for this video but how do you share this with your friends? , the only person who seems to care is my mom and she also has a full time job . I appreciate her so much. I’m about to hit 9 weeks and I’m dying .

This video was better than I expected.

Dear lady you say that Banshee visit the true Irish, as far as i know i'm not Irish, i'm Flemish, i dont have family but got a lot of visit of Banshee ( Heavely sick ) and youre right every time she visit someone dies ( mostly my animals ), could you tell me why i have Banshee haunt me?

@wolfemomma I see Cora listed as a Greek name, but also Irish origins? Is Cora an Irish name?

Who has time for Keto and exercise…. 😢. With a full time job and 2 kids I don’t have time. However, I can do fasting . ADIF. Alternate Day IF. So for those of us who don’t have time for keto and exercise, we have to do ADIF OR even rolling 72 .

Adare sounds like the linen chain shop we have here in Australia, but it is spelt Adaire

I could run away into the moonlight 🌜 with you 🌹✨✨

Thank you! I’m dating an Irish guy so this helps. 😂

I did better than I thought I would! I got about half of them straightaway, and about a fourth pretty close to correct. A few just left me 😵‍💫. Both my husband and I are of Irish descent. I was raised in the Irish Step Dance community, going to feisanna and ceilis. When we were having our babies, Irish or "Irish inspired" names were our go to choices. I campaigned hard for Maeve because I loved the idea of naming a daughter after such a strong woman, but my hubs wasn't a fan. He really liked Deirdre, but I didn't like the idea of naming our daughter after someone with such a horrible story (including her taking her own life). In the end we have a Mary (was this close to Maire!), a Fiona, and a Brigid. If they'd been boys they were to be Conor, Owen, or Declan.

I'm from New Orleans, and we use something similar to "yer man/one" which is "ya boy/girl". Usually means someone the other person knows, but could mean literally anyone, even yourself. "I ran into ya boy the other day." There was a popular radio DJ whose call-phrase was "It's ya boy, Wild Wayne!" and if you want someone to call you, you could say "Holla at ya boy." If you don't know them, you could replace "ya" with " ol' ", as in "ol' boy/girl/dude". "Check out ol' girl on the corner." You could use either whether you know them or not, though.

I grew up in England, moved to Belfast learned the pronunciation of many irish names, moved to Tipperary and get strange looks when i mention some of the names since they are suddenly pronounced differently 😄 . My daughter Caoimhe went from keeva to queeva.

And I thought learning Klingon pronunciation was difficult... Yes ofc. she speaks and writes the pronounciation here, but imagine encountering the written words in "the wild" and having to know how to speak them.

I carried the Christening Bonnet in my hand for my wedding then our daughters wore it when they were baptised. (Our hankie and christening gown have been in our family since the 1800’s.) I did the six pence in my shoe with a panty liner over it, 😂, the priest did the hand fastening with his stole, I had shamrocks and the claddagh sewn into my dress (family custom). We had our horseshoe blessed by the priest the day prior and had it propped up on a stand for our guests to bless. I wasn’t bucking family tradition! 27+ years later going strong. My Nana gave us my great Nana’s Lismore bell. We ring it just for fun as we never fight 😂. Brilliant job bringing the customs to light.

Congrats on the new little

EVERYTHING you've said is wrong, you are an embarrassment to the Irish language and to Irish people, stop making videos

That was very helpful. Thank you. Congratulations and best wishes on your up coming arrival.

Missed you, Wolfe Mama! God bless you and your wee one! Can’t wait to hear the name you pick for him or her!👶🏻

My son's name is Connor. Good to know!

Name written on screen:🤬📈 Also known as Justin: 😀🤠

🎉 congratulations... and i was able to pronounce quite a few of them.

Congratulations 🎊

I love your videos. God bless you with your upcoming birth. Is this your first child? Please tell us the stories you grew up hearing. We'd love that. Take care. 🥰

I got some of these names right. I need to know the gender of the baby👦👧👦👧

Good afternoon, I got perhaps three names out of all of these, but they are great.

hahaha. I didn't get ONE of them correct. Congratulations on your pregnancy.

I have 4 kids. 3 boys and a lil girl. Their names are: Deglan Thorsten, Cullen Bragi, Kiran Eirlys, and Freya Bláithín.

Have you covered Ciarán or Ciaran before? The pronunciations seem to vary on the internet. What is your take? Thank you!

"Bring 🇨🇦 Troops Home! @GordBolton ·Jun 18, 2022 Replying to @DagnyTaggart369 I was curious about that name (Taggart) for a long time. We had some neighbors with that name out on the prairies when I was a child." Greetings Wolfe Momma & congratulations! The name of the neighbour was McTaggart. I am one of those stupid people who look for meaning in things including names. I asked what the name meant & no-one could tell me. Much much later I learned that the literal translation of McTaggart was son of a priest (druid) or even better son of one who honours the bards! Even more interesting is the ancient Tagar culture in the Valley of the Kings near the Altai Mountains who were very much into beautiful Scythian art 1000s of years ago. According to the Decimali Channel the population of Wales, Ireland, Scotland & some Baltic countries have high percentages of the Tagar DNA! I explored the theory that much, most maybe all the fair skinned blond haired population of Europe rode in on horseback from Central & Eastern Asia. An Iranian contemporary of Genghis Khan described him as a large man with red hair & green eyes -- maybe a cousin of the Eric the Red?

Love your videos, especially the boys and girls names. Love the way you pronounce and explain each one! Thank you!

With all your knowledge of names and origins, it would be interesting to see what you’ll choose for your baby! May you have an easier time in your remaining pregnancy. ❤️

Congratulations! I hope you and baby are healthy and happy!

What a rabbit hole....I could listen to those Irish names all day. I love your videos

Congratulations! Loved that you included Justin - as it is my son's name.

I love your videos. I'm so glad you're feeling better. My wonderful husband is from Cork and I'm always proud when I can get these names right. I love the phrases he uses, now that I know the difference between "yer one" and "yer man". 😂 💙🍀💙

Hang on, how do you get Justin out of that name?

Congratulations on your pregnancy. Hope you're feeling better with morning sickness. Thank you for informative video.❤❤❤

Welcome back you been busy and look good too
