Who Picks the Name?
Tradition, family, faith—and one big community vote.
Dear Ireland,
There’s a hush in your valleys that feels like memory, and a welcome in your villages that feels like home. Not the kind of home with keys and walls—but the kind made of music drifting from a pub door, of old stories whispered in the breeze, and of paths that feel like they’ve been waiting just for us. For those who wander off the map, you always leave a light on. And somehow, we always find our way back.
