Scottish Names

Or Seamus. Gaelic either way.

Liam is a name in it's own right in Ireland - I think it's the Gaelic equivalent of William though. And I thought Guillaume was the French for William?

Some of these names are so pretty, half i have never heard of.

 

Interesting to know.
Both that "Sean" is irish and that "Guillaume" is the french for "William".
...anyway: scottish, irish, welsh...
All of them are "celtic" family...
Aren't they ?

 

Correct - and don't forget the lesser known branches of the Celtic language 'tree' - Breton (Brittany), Manx and Cornish.

The Celts were spread across much of Western Europe, but with the increasing dominance of the Romans, they were 'pushed' back into the wilder parts of Europe, those place that were more inaccessible, the 'extremities' if you like - Brittany, Wales, Scotland and of course Ireland where even the Romans couldn't be bothered to go!

 

Don't forget the Germanic names though Marley, from the Anglo-Saxon invasions...

 

Furthermore, I add that Celts originates in a region that is roughly the Black Forest (Schwarzwald) in Germany.
It is "bizzare" to think that Celts originated in nowadays Germany, settled in Britain and were eventually pushed away by those german "Saxons" that nowadays call themselves "British people".
I mean: some "germans" (the Celts. In "quotes" since they were not a germanic speaking people) settled to Britain and eventually were pushed away by other germans (the Saxons. In this case, german without "quotes" as they were indeed germanic people speaking a germanic language) and they were also "stolen" the name of "British" by the Saxons although THEY were the real ancient british inhabitants.
History is very intricate...
