Scottish male names have a lot in common with Irish as well as Welsh. The only difference is the pronunciation and small modifications that were used to make them easier to pronounce. The roots and meaning of these names for boys go back to the Gaulish, Anglo-Saxon and Celtic tribes that inhabited these northern lands many years ago. But today they have been supplemented by a list of traditional Christian names that the Catholic faith brought to this land. Scots often use typically English diminutive forms, which are used with the same rights as their full version, as well as the names of geographical areas (for example, Atoll - "new Ireland", Innis - "island"). Their number is not limited, so you can often find a two-three-digit male name.

Scottish boy names

Most Scottish names have the prefix "Mac": which is translated from the Gaelic language as "son". Before Christianity came to the Scottish land and the names of the Scottish and Celts appeared, the prefix "mac" was involved in the formation of the name, it was added to the father's name: Angus Mac Jones, Duncan Mac Donald. After some time, similar forms became surnames and were assigned to all members of each clan, the name of the founder of the clan was the basis.

In addition to surnames and first names, many members of the clan had personal nicknames that described the individual's personality, for example: the name Alpin - "white", Mor - "big", Roy - "red", the name Alan - "Generous", etc. So as a Scottish people deeply true to their roots and traditions, there are few newly acquired, new names among the people.

Celtic male and female names and their meanings

The Celts are a people of Indo-European origin, who in ancient times inhabited a large territory in the center and west of Europe. There are a lot of legends about these people, many are interested in their culture. Parents today often give their children ancient Celtic names. As a matter of fact, why not? They sound good. Before considering these names, you should know more about the Celts.

Celts are wonderful warriors

These people were famous for their fearlessness in battle. They perceived battles as a show during which they could show off and demonstrate their strength. Before each battle, they mocked their enemies, for example, sang mocking songs about them. They also scared opponents with a howl. The Celts understood that if you pissed off the enemy before the immediate battle, then he was practically defeated. Should be aware of all these points modern man who is interested in Celtic names, female or male - it does not matter.

Intimidating the enemy

Their war cries sounded very frightening, perhaps because many of them were in a state of severe intoxication, it is also possible that they used some intoxicating substances. The Celts also had rather loud trumpets and horns - it is quite clear that they were pursuing the goal of shocking the enemy. Celtic names were sometimes intimidating too.

Consideration for physical fitness

The more successful a person was in battles, the higher status he had in society. If the Celt wanted to achieve real recognition, he had to strive to become a brave fighter. They took their physical condition quite seriously. A kind of obesity test was regularly carried out: each community had a special belt, and if it was impossible to fasten it on a person, then everyone treated him with condemnation. Often, even young children were eager to attribute good physical qualities. What were the Celtic names, especially for women? For example, Iris is cute or Aleena is charming. It says a lot.

To demonstrate their courage, many of the warriors fought naked. Some had bright paint on their bodies, which left a lasting impression on the Romans. It is possible that they fought naked because it had some kind of mystical meaning. Perhaps it was a kind of ritual - throwing everything off yourself and showing the gods how you fight. In addition, the Celts, of course, wanted to impress their enemies with their powerful muscles and designs on their bodies. Indeed, the opponents were shocked. Studying Celtic male names, one wonders how many of them are related to the war.

Celtic culture

These people, who inhabited such different territories as Turkey, Spain and Ireland, most likely did not maintain contacts with each other, but there were many common points in their culture. In addition, they spoke similar languages. Their art had a lot in common. The Celtic names were also almost the same.

Found in places as diverse as Hungary and Ireland, these cultures often have much the same style. How is this possible? Archaeologists still cannot answer this question unambiguously. However, they think that wars, travel and trade contributed to this. Thus, Celtic names, cultures and languages ​​spread to distant territories. Quite a plausible version.

How do we know about the Celts?

We know very little about the culture of the Celts, since this people did not keep any records - they transmitted all the information orally. The information we have is taken from the documents of their opponents. In particular, we learned the Celtic names from these records.

All that we have is the information left to us by the Greeks and Romans. However, no one will argue that it is difficult to adequately assess people when you observe them, hearing the enemy's war cry and now and then covering yourself with a shield.

Weapon making

The fame of the Celts spread thanks to their interesting method of metal processing. These people were real experts in the production of weapons. They made large swords from hardened steel, uniforms, shields, as well as vehicles, in particular, chariots, whose huge wheels were equipped with metal rims, therefore, were very strong and durable.

But Gwalkhmei is a completely different matter, it is hardly worth choosing him. It is presented rather simply for information.

Welsh (Welsh) language is spoken in Wales - a region located in the southwest of Great Britain. Often Welsh ( Cymraeg ) is confused with the so-called Welsh English ( Welsh English,Wenglish ) - a group of local dialects in English... Unlike them Cymraeg does not belong to Germanic (like English), but to the Celtic group of languages. Welsh is very close to Breton and now almost extinct Cornish.

Since in the past Wales was strongly influenced by alternating Roman, Anglo-Saxon and Norman cultures, among the Welsh names there are names of Latin ( Amerawdwr- lat. imperator, Geraint- lat. Gerontius), Germanic ( Gerallt -Gerwald,Oswallt -Oswald) and Norman origin ( Pyrs -Piers,Pierre,Siôn -Jehan,Jean). However, the main part is made up of common Celtic and Welsh names proper. Many of them are well known to the world thanks to the Mabinogion and the cycle of legends about King Arthur: Gwenhwyfar (Guenvivar,Guinevere),Myrddin (Myrtin,Merlin),Bedwyr (Bedouir, Bedivere) and actually Arthur.

At the end of the 15th century, Wales became part of England, and the Welsh language began to gradually be replaced by English. The same thing happens with names: Welsh names are either Anglicized ( Griffith instead of Gruffydd, Yorath instead of Iorwerth) or are replaced by equivalent English equivalents ( Mari -Mary, Mared-Margaret). Since today only about 20% of the Welsh population speaks Welsh, most Welsh people have English or Anglicized names. In 2007, only two male Welsh names made it to the top ten most popular names in Wales ( Dylan and Rhys) and three female ( Megan,Ffion and Seren).

A distinguishing feature of many Welsh names is the component gwyn(feminine gwen), meaning "white, pure, holy, sacred" (cf. Irl.-Gaelic. fionn). With its help, dozens of names are formed: Arianwen (pure, sacred silver), Blodwen(White flower), Coronwen (sacred crown), Eirwyn (White snow), Eurwyn(pure gold), Gwalchgwyn (white falcon)... As with Breton names, the elements are also popular with the Welsh. mael and iud with the approximate meaning of "lord, leader, prince": Maelan (little leader), Maelgwn (leader of the wolves), Cadfael (leader of the battle), Derfel (true leader), Idris (ardent leader), Ithel (noble leader), Maredudd (great leader or lord of the sea).

About the list of Welsh names posted on this site

Reading rules in Welsh are quite peculiar, especially for those who are used to English spelling. Therefore, it would be a big mistake to pronounce Welsh names in English. cymraeg.ru, which contains an excellent manual by Elena Parina and Pavel Iosad " Welsh reading rules". Unfortunately, the Russian language does not have many sounds that are present in Welsh, so the transcription of Welsh names in Cyrillic is quite difficult. The Russian transcription of Welsh names posted on this site is made by the author of the site and does not claim to be the ultimate truth. have comments or suggestions - write to me.

Attention! Most Welsh names are pronounced with the stress on the penultimate syllable, unless the last syllable contains a diphthong.

This list does not include (with rare exceptions):
- names derived from surnames and geographical names. Since in many English-speaking countries, any surname and any toponym can become a personal name, this list would have to be expanded indefinitely.
- diminutive forms as independent names (in the manner of English Billy, Jack, used since the middle of the XX century as equal official names). All diminutive forms are given only together with the full name ( Mared - Megan, Meaghan, Meghan).

Celts - ancient peoples that inhabited most of Central and Western Europe. These include the Arverni, Belgae, Biturgi, Boyi, Volcae, Galatians, Gauls, Helvetians, and Senones. They were warlike and often waged internecine wars. For the Celts, war was an excellent opportunity to show personal prowess. It is no wonder that many Celtic names are associated with war.

The Celts did not have a written language. They passed on all their knowledge orally from the older generation to the younger. Therefore, all information about the Celtic culture, including their names, is known only thanks to the written sources of peoples who have ever encountered the Celts. Most of these documents belong to the Romans. Most often, such clashes were of a military nature. The Romans describe the Celts as brave and desperate warriors.

The Celts had a tradition of going into battle naked. It is not known for certain why this was done. Most likely, in order to discourage the enemy before the start of the battle. Indeed, there was something to be afraid of: a body with well-developed muscles, completely covered with intricate patterns of tattoos, as a rule, drove the enemy into a stupor.

The Celts attached great importance to their physical form. If someone was steadily gaining excess weight, then he was criticized by his fellow tribesmen.

Male names

Healthy adults celtic men did not see themselves without war. Therefore, the frightening Celtic male names were also given with one purpose - to intimidate the enemy. Bright representatives of such names:

• Agro is the literal translation of "battle".
• Barra is the shooter.
• Brandon - translated as "sword".
• Kaiden means "warrior".
• Gwilym - "helmet", etc.

Names of women

If the male name emphasized the courage and belligerence of its bearer, then the name of the woman was most often given on the basis of other principles. It denoted the most pronounced character trait of the owner or the uniqueness of her appearance. Female names are:

• Iris means "pleasant" in Celtic.
• Gwendolen is "noble."
• Idelisa is "generous."
• Rowena is pretty.
• Edana - "passionate", etc.

But often among celtic women there are names that emphasize the strength of character or the physical strength of their mistresses. From which it can be assumed that they, too, could participate in battles on an equal basis with men. Several names from such a list:

• Breeda - "strong", "independent".
• Brigitte is hardy.
• Ryanne is the "little leader."
• Three hundred - "fearless".
• Edna - "fiery", etc.

Celtic surnames have a number of characteristics that highlight their origins. Often, prefixes are used in their writing. "Poppy" (for Scottish) and "O" (for Irish)... As an example:

These and other surnames can often be found in English-language documents and literature. But along with them, there were a lot of surnames that did not have a prefix:

• Horan.
• Kelly.
• Byrne.
• Murray.
• Wilson, etc.

Currently, most of Britain's Celtic descendants live in Wales. They have their own language (Welsh), although only about 20 percent Welsh... At one time, Wales was often influenced by the Roman Empire, Normans and Anglo-Saxons. This is confirmed by the following names:

• Amerontius.
• Herald.
• Oswald.
• Pier.
• Pierre.
• Jean, etc.

Although the main ones are still the indigenous Welsh (Welsh) names. Many of them are famous for the legend of King Arthur. These include:

• Guinevere.
• Myrtin.
• Merlin.
• Bedivere.
• Arthur.

Wales is part of England at the end of the 15th century... From this period, Welsh names began to be replaced by English ones or written in the English manner. Nowadays, most of the people in Wales are native speakers of English names.

Gaul names

Descendants of the Celtic Gauls tribe live on the territory of modern France. Together with the Germanic tribe of Franks, they became the ancestors of the modern French. Among the Gaulish there were:

• Ayomheir - translated as "archer".
• Bernard is "like a bear."
• Dati - means "smart".
• Kalvag means bald.
• Colin is a "young dog" and so on.

Women's names were no less bizarre, too. Like other peoples, they could describe the character of the mistress, her appearance, or even her origin. These names are still in use today:

• Brigid means majestic.
• Katrin means pure.
• Marceline meant "belligerent."
• Una - translated as "lamb".
• Mary - can be translated as "beloved", etc.

What were the names of the druids

Various tribes of the Celts practiced paganism (polytheism). They worshiped the forces of nature, embodied in numerous patron deities. A distinctive feature of Celtic polytheism is the Druids - priests who performed religious rituals, as well as who were often healers. A small list of the names of male druids:

• Agnaman.
• Gutor.
• Tuatal.
• Scandlan.
• Ruadan, etc.

Traditional Celtic beliefs lasted until AD 54. e. The Roman emperor Claudius imposed a ban on the religious activities of the Druids. In Ireland and Britain, paganism persisted until the 5-6 centuries. Then it was supplanted by Christianity.
