GUEST,chrisj Name suggestions for a fairly new pub. (69* d) RE: Name suggestions for a fairly new pub. 14 Jul 01


I for one am sick to death of the stage-Irish clap-trap that large multi-national brewing concerns have latched onto for the "Irish Pub'phase now happily on the wane. If there must be an Irish connection in the pub's name why not: 'The Hound of Cullen','The Great O'Neill', 'The Prince of TyrConnell' 'The Silken Thomas', 'The Earl of Desmond', 'The CS Parnell' or even 'The Captain Boycott'. All of the above are quintessentially Irish and have a timelessness that does not give the impression of a 'lets jump on the bandwagon' attempt to cash in with a few signposts showing Killarney and Galway. Here in Melbourne we have sundry 'Bridie O'Reilly's', 'Pug Mahone', 'Kitty O'Shea', 'The Quiet Man' and 'Molly Bloom's'.
