Ronan

• a great Irish name with a nice meaning and it isn't over used
• A Celtic name meaning "a seal."  This is a great name, plus it has that all-important sea connection for me.
• Love it because it's handsome, unique and I like the nickname 'Ro'.
• Supposedly this is Irish for "little seal." Unusual. Cute for a little kid, sexy on a guy... assuming the guy himself is sexy. Nickname Rone or Roan or Ro. Cool name.

Ronan is the anglicization of the Irish name Rónán. This name is derived from 'rón' meaning "seal" (the animal) and '-án," a diminutive ending.
