Celebrity Babies with Irish Names

Recent imports from the Emerald Isle include Caitlin, Aiden, Liam, and Finn. Surnames such as Riley, Finley, Reagan, and Sullivan are wildly popular too. Of course, you could just name your child Ireland as Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger did. And what could be better than one Irish name? Try two...and follow in the footsteps of Patrick Dempsey or Ben Stiller.
