Reply:Yes, I was named after the River Dave.

Reply:I was not aware they did Aunty.
Reply:Shannon, well that's only one, why do people name their children after celebs, or make up names that sounds like something you pulled out of a Christmas cracker, because they do i guess.
Reply:Clever! People name their children after all sorts of things, Shannon is a pretty name so why not?
Reply:Yeah - I'm named after the rivers Robert and Michael - but then I am Irish.
Reply:I dont know any kids called Liffey
Reply:LOL like the river Shannon
Reply:I dont think they pick the name because its the name of an Irish river. I think some people may choose names for their kids that just happen to be the names of Irish rivers.
