The Irish baby boy’s name that is about to become ‘extinct’

We're surprised to see this Irish name is so unpopular

There are some pretty popular options for baby boys like Rían and Oisín, but there's one name going out of style.

According to the CSO, only five parents chose this Irish name for their sons in 2024.

The name Daimhin is falling in popularity, but the meaning behind the name has won us over.

The Irish moniker means 'little deer,' which is an incredibly sweet choice for your baby boy.

Parents may not love the name Daimhin, but other Irish names are growing in popularity.

Rían has proven to be a huge hit with new parents, which comes as no surprise.
