Well, Liam is an Irish Gaelic form of William (or Uilliam), much like Sean and Seamus are the Irish Gaelic forms of John and James, so I think it is a fairly common Irish name. (Think Liam Neeson.)

I do really like the name.

We have a Liam (about 10 yrs. old) in the extended family. My sister married into a huge Irish family; for holidays they often rent a hall because no other place can hold all the cousins & their kids.

Liam really suits him.

His father shortens it to "Lee" - so we have "Jackson and Lee".

Sounds like my family...only we don't rent anywhere. If we all have to get together, we go to my uncle's place because he has a lot of land. All the elders sit inside and the other 3/4 of us all sprawl outside.
