Question

Are the names "Tyrone", and "Warren" okay for a child's name in Ireland?

Answer 1

If you want the p.c. answer then-  yes of course you should name your children whatever you want.

If you want the realistic answer - the child is likely to get the p**s taken out of them... especially Tyrone...

Answer 2

If you like them then why shouldn't they be OK?

Answer 3

lovely names for a child people wont have any problem at all

Answer 4

Warren, yes, it's actually quite common. I've never come across a child called 'Tyrone' in Ireland, but if you're going to name a child 'Clare' or 'Kerry', why not 'Tyrone'?

Answer 5

Yes why not there's nothing wrong with the names..xx

Answer 6

Yes, I know people named both Tyrone and Warren.

Answer 7

Legal, but to my way of thinking uninspired.  Remember that people do make judgements about students and job applicants based on issues like names - I'm aware it's unfair and not totally rational, but they do.

Choosing a name is a big responsibility for parents, so do it well!

Answer 8

Yes, They're absolutely fine.
