Gaelic Translations of English (and other foreign) Names

This page is for names that have been taken from other sources (Bible, English names, Norse names etc.) and
adopted into the Gaelic name pool. You may find a translation of your name on this page! 

Note: not every name can be translated into Gaelic. Most of the names that are translatable are either biblical, the names of saints, or names of English and Norman settlers that became adopted into the naming pool. Modern names (i.e., names that came into common English use in the past couple of centuries, like Melissa, Tanya, and Jason) generally cannot be translated.

We have lists of Women's names and Men's names.
