    Inspiration can be found everywhere in the month of March. I've been having so much fun discovering some fun Easter maternity dresses, spring birth announcements, and St. Patrick's Day-themed baby showers. And now, I can hardly contain my excitement about these Irish baby names! Baby names, springtime, and St. Patrick's Day. I mean, it's like heaven. These 7 names are the top names in Ireland. Some of them have earned their place on the charts here in the states, too. But I wonder if the others are wearable in the U.S. I think they're lovely and would be a great way to honor the Irish.
