Kiernan James or Kier James (I don't like Kieran for a boy cause it sounds too much like Karen)


Cianan James (kee nin)

I like Kieran best, but I would find it impractical for everyday use with a sister named Caelan. I find Conor a little too precious with Caelan (fine with Jack.) Daniel is a handsome classic, though it doesn't feel perfect with the sibs. You seem to like Gaelic names, so let's see what else there is...

Abram (Bram)
Thaddeus (Thad)
Emmett
Declan

I think Daniel would go well with bro Jack - I would normally vote for Connor over Kieran and Daniel but you already have Caelan so I would avoid another c/k name.

Thank you all so much for the thoughts and suggestions:) They are greatly appreciated!! I have thought of the Caelan/Conor/Kieran similar sounds but as there is a Jack and 5+ years thrown in between there I thought it broke it up a bit:) Also our last name is an Mc so I thought the C/K blended well with that:) Aaaaaah, such fun!!

We also both love Ryan but cannot use it as it has been swiped within the family:)

what about rhyland?? i too love the name ryan, but know a lot of people with that name-its really common in our community. i think that rhyland is a good alternative-and rhyland james has a nice flow to it. as far as the names you mentioned-
conor is really common...and kieran is okay, but nms. daniel is all right too-i just dont like the danny and dan nicknames that automatically come with it. what about duncan, leo, lucas or roman?? they all sound nice with james and theyre all nice, strong and not all that common names. good luck!!
