Riley is one of my all time fav boys names but DF's last name starts with R and I don't like alliteration (i think that is the correct term for it) in names so it rules that out! If we have a boy next time, DF wants the middle name to be Patrick after his first name but with Conor as the first name, his initials would end up being CPR and I just couldn't do that lol which is why we desided on Joseph for middle name instead.
I think having Callum and Conor is fine. Having Kaegan or Keiran is really the same as they have the same 'C' sound

liza I wouldn't worry too much about 'CPR'. If it's not insulting then it's ok in my books.
Eimears initials (without second name) are ET (EMT with) and Aoifes (with second name) are ACT 
For my DDs, the second name won't be used too much anyway so I picked family names.
I have no documentation that has my second name. In fact other than the health system here I go only by a shortened version of my birth name.
We did think of coordinating their initials to be KIT , KAT or TIT for TAT

I know CPR isn't insulting but kids can be cruel so I want to rule out any possible form of harrassment as I can lol I know, I know, kids will always find SOMETHING to hassle other kids about. Isla was going to be Olivia Grace Richardson but I was worried that OGR was too close to Ogre lol I think too much! 
Sorry for thread jacking!

Oh I love Emmet! Didn't know it was Irish!
Lol Lisa that's funny, Lily's initials is Lams like lamb without the b. I knew it when I picked her name and EVERYONE pointed it out but I just love her whole name so too bad! I could have swapped her middle names which are Anne and Maria but I thought Maria Anne sounded a bit off. Anyway sorry to TJ too!

I have a Tait Isla Elisabeth, or TIE, but fell in love with it so decided I didn't care! (Though she might mind if she marries someone with a D surname). Irish boy suggestions- Orrin, Renton, Brannock, Ruaridh (pronounced Rory), & I'll post more when I remember! We got 2 of our dds names (Eliot & Tait) from a Celtic genealogy book that had lists of surnames (incl gaelic & norse). I've always loved Wyatt but our surname starts with W so it was a no go! (& this bub is a girl anyway!).

More names- some fit some of your criteria, =). Angus, Devon, Dillon, Dominic, Douglas, Fergus, Fraser, Gregory, Lennox, Liam, Logan, Malachy, Muir, Nicholas, Oscar, Reilly, Rowan, Ryan, Tobias, Torin. Latin names are apparently popular in Ireland because of the religous saints thing.
