Namewise

Most popular baby names in Republic of Ireland (2000)

The rankings exactly as CSO Ireland published them for 2000. Republic of Irelandpublishes a girls' list and a boys' list separately, so they are shown separately — there is no official combined ranking, and Namewise does not invent one.

This source has published 62 complete rankings, from 1964 to 2025. Data sources · Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0)
