Celtic baby names
Updated: April 9th, 2024
Celtic baby names are traditionally based on the Celtic culture such as Celtic symbols, gods, festivals, Druids, and Iron Age mythology.
The Celts are the collection of Indo-European people of Europe who speak Celtic languages. The Celtic baby names are generally derived from mythology, history, place names, and legends of Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, and areas of northern Spain and these names also display the charm of the Isles they are derived from. A Celtic baby name consists of a given name or first and a surname, which is patronymic in etymology. There are some Celtic baby names such as Erin which are used commonly while some are more exotic. The pronunciation and spelling of traditional Celtic baby names can be a bit tricky due to the presence of Celtic vowels. There are many Celtic baby names that are used for both boys and girls, for example, Sean and Quinn.
