Whether baby's luscious locks are blonde, black, or red, the name Gilroy will unlock their fiery potential. This masculine pick derives from the Irish and Scottish Mac Giolla Ruaidh, meaning "son of the red-haired lad." Gilroy is traditionally a surname and cropped up in the 1940s, adding to its vintage feel. Baby can usher in a new era for their name like writer and producer Henry Gilroy did for the Star Wars franchise.
