Hi, I was hoping I could find some folks who know the Gaelic language fairly well and could give me a hand with naming my son who's due in late May.

My husband and I are both of Gaelic descent and therefore wanted to pass on the naming tradition to our son.

My name is Bonnie.

My husband's name is Phelan.

Since my husband's name means 'wolf' we wanted to name our son after him without making him a Jr.

The only name I've been able to find that we like is Blaidd but I'm afraid this would doom my son to forever having his name pronounced Blade instead of Blieth. (His father says no one can get his name right so why should his son be any different rolleyes.gif )

What we're looking for is either another name or word that means 'Wolf' or perhaps one or a combo of that means 'Wolf Song' or 'Beautiful Wolf'. This can be a first name or a first and middle combination.

We were originally going for Welsh Gaelic but honestly I'd be happy with Scottish Gaelic as well.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to seeing if I receive any responses!
