It’s official – the most popular baby girl names have been confirmed.<\/p>\n

Experts at Little Ones London <\/a>examined the latest data from the 2025 Central Statistics Office (CSO) of the unique, summer-inspired baby girl names in Ireland.<\/p>\n

Coming in the top spot for the number one summer-inspired baby girl’s name is the Irish name F\u00edadh.<\/p>\n

While to some quite a hard name to pronounce, data revealed that there were a total of 352 girls given the name in 2025. The Irish word F\u00edadh means “wild” or “untamed” and is pronounced Fee-a.<\/p>\n

It first arrived in the baby name charts in Ireland in the mid-90s.<\/p>\n

R\u00f3is\u00edn conquered second place as the most popular summer-inspired baby girl name in Ireland today, with 135 baby girls given the name in 2025.<\/p>\n

R\u00f3is\u00edn means \u201cLittle Rose\u201d in Irish; the name is closely associated with one of summer\u2019s most iconic flowers.<\/p>\n

Its floral roots help give the traditional Irish name a timeless summer appeal.<\/p>\n

Caoimhe came close to R\u00f3is\u00edn but was slightly behind, securing third place. 130 baby girls were given the name in 2025.<\/p>\n

It is derived from the Irish word caomh, meaning \u201cgentle\u201d, \u201cbeautiful\u201d or \u201cprecious\u201d.<\/p>\n

The name reflects qualities often associated with the warmth, beauty and relaxed atmosphere of summer.<\/p>\n

Aoife is the fourth most popular summer-inspired baby girl name in Ireland today. 121 baby girls were given the name in 2025.<\/p>\n

In Irish mythology, Aoife is associated with beauty and radiance, helping connect the name to brightness, sunshine and the lighter days of summer.<\/p>\n

Daisy is the fifth most popular summer-inspired baby girl name in Ireland today, with 105 baby girls given the name in 2025.<\/p>\n

Taken directly from the flower of the same name, Daisy is strongly associated with sunshine, wildflower meadows, gardens and long summer days outdoors.<\/p>\n
