no, its not Irish/Gaelic. Its from the Holy land...

I personally like the sound of the word "Shiloh" sounds melodic to me.
same thing with "Moriah". when I named my oldest girl Moriah, 27 years ago, no one had ever heard of it. Then in the mid to late 80's Mariah Carey came on the scene, and ruined THAT for me too! I was trying to give my girls unusual names, but when people heard them (like Shiloh's pediatrician's Nurse) they said "Im going to name MY kid that!!"" so, there goes the uniqueness...
oh well

My son is Brendan Reilly. I picked an IRISH name for him LOL!

I had a list of Irish boys' names: Liam, Padraic, Brendan, Kevin, Connor, etc...and I liked Brendan best. Then for a middle name, he is named after my best bud. Cant top that I guess!
