Before you get all worried that I shouldn’t be allowed to poke fun at north side baby names, let me say this:
- My dad is a North sider and my mam is a Southsider. Therefore, I am of mixed heritage and am totally qualified to write this.
- My name is Sharyn. SHARDEN. Like, Sharon Curley from The Snapper. I have the Dublinest of Dublin names and have been slagged off forever.
- I will get to the southside, oh believe me, I will.
Here are my favourite North Side Dublin Baby Boy Names And Their (Totally Made Up) Meanings:
