When my partner was pregnant we tried using a babyname app and honestly it was shite for us as it barely had any Irish names, just the same generic suggestions everyone else gets. So I tried making one for Irish, Welsh , Scots Gaelic etc names
Celticbabynames.app
Built LullabyMe because my baby would only calm down to my voice singing — not a generic lullaby from a playlist, not a music box, not a white noise machine. Just me. Problem was I am not always there , often travelling for work. So I built an app that lets you record yourself singing over a real backing track, and play it back at bedtime every night.
What's inside:
🎙️ Voice Recording — sing over a backing track and capture it exactly as it sounds
🎵 Backing Track Library — choose the melody that fits your moment
🌙 Lullaby Playback — your recording, ready every bedtime
💾 Save & Keep — your voice, preserved for as long as they need it
Make bedtime yours:

If it becomes part of your routine, a Play Store rating means the world to a solo build
So this is a bit of a funny one and apologies if not allowed .
Last year when my partner was pregnant we tried using the babynames app but we couldn't agree on anything , the was almost no Irish names.
I started building something myself but fate worked against me and our son arrived 20 days early.
Our son was born and we still hadn't agreed on a name. When the doctor asked us what his name was straight after delivery, my partner asked "do we have to decide now?" , we did , so we went with the name we almost agreed on ( Rian )
So I finished building it anyway ,partly for the next baby, partly because I finally had a few hours to myself .
It's called Celtic Baby Names ( I started with Irish and moved on to the rest of the Celtic languages as well )

I've been using excel but after visiting this sub I see others seem to be using nicer looking interfaces at least . Any recommendations?
