Gorgeous baby name with an empowering meaning is fastest-rising girl's name

Irish names are rich in cultural heritage, deeply rooted in history, mythology, and meaning . Many of the most popular Irish names for girls have been passed down through generations, reflecting Ireland's deep connection to its Celtic roots.

According to NameBerry.com, one Irish girl's name is gaining popularity in the country. The beautiful name Fiadh, pronounced (Fee-a), is derived from the root word for "wild" in the Irish language .

Parents might also be drawn to the Anglicized form Fia. But Fiadh is just one of the many stunning Irish girl's names you might consider. Another popular name is Aoife (pronounced EE-fa), a Gaelic name that means "beautiful" or "radiant."

• 'I chose a very unique baby name - people have no clue how to pronounce it'
• 'I tricked my sister-in-law into stealing my baby name and she fell for it'

In Irish mythology, Aoife was a warrior princess often associated with strength and bravery, reports Belfast Live .

Made famous by the actress of the same name, Saoirse (pronounced SEER-sha) means "freedom" in Irish. Ciara (pronounced KEE-ra) means "dark-haired" or "black." It is derived from the male name Ciarán, and the feminine version became popular in Ireland due to St Ciara, a 7th-century saint known for her piety and charity.

This comes as the experts at Nameberry released their list of baby name trends for 2025 .

Among their list, they claim 'actual baby names ' will be making a return, leaving the 'elderly' names such as Edith, Dorothy, Arthur, and Charles behind. A statement reads: "If the past few years have emphasized “you’re naming an adult, not a baby”, 2025 will embrace the inverse. Some of the trendiest baby names are clearly meant for babies.

"Taking inspiration from notable influencer babies, including Nara Smith’s Whimsy Lou, Jaci Marie Smith’s daughter Benny, and Savannah LaBrant’s son Blue, parents are increasingly opting for nicknames on the birth certificate and nouveau choices with a playful sensibility . Rhythm is an important factor. These spirited names are often paired with a single-syllable middle name to achieve a sing-songy effect, like Rio Rose, Klarity Doll, and Aero Lore — all recent celebrity baby names."
