Tir Na Nog! Found out I’m legit 1/2 Irish, So I have a special place in my heart for Seamus. ?
The Bent Shillelaghs.
The Golden Shamrock
Seamus Finnegan’s Irish Clover Pub
Shenanigans would be a good name for an Irish Pub!
Clancey lowered the boom
Irish Dreams Found.
The Lucky Clover. Heck, now I want to open an Irish Pub and name it that! Would it be wrong since I’m Scottish?
The Galway Gal
Shenanigans was the first name I came up with. Shamrock Pub, Paddy’s Irish Pub, Dented Mug, Leprechaun Pub, The Blarney Stone
The Lazy Leprechaun
Irish comfort. Or Irish sighs. The Shilelagh. Erin’s Dew Drop inn. Eire Place.
Seamus’ Shots
I like this– good luck
slainte irish pub
Luck of the Irish or The Lucky Place
I thought the Green Lantern is a good name.
How about: “teach tábhairne na hÉireann“ which is “that Irish Pub in Gaelic or “torthaí ar an oileán”: fruit of the island or” torthaí an chalafoirt”- fruit of the Port.
The Green Dragon
Fool’s Gold
Misty Clover
Beyond The Mist
Gold Mist
Personally, after reading about Seamus’s appearance, manner and personality, I kind of think that “The Leprechaun’s Lair” would suit.
Angry Leprechaun might be an interesting name
The Irish Unicorn, Rainbows End
Possible name for the bar:
The Wild Irish Rose
I love the suggestions everyone has made! They’re wonderful! I might name the bar a more sinister name. Banshees Wail; Witches Brew; Merrow’s Cap….
Fighting Irish Pub
The Prickly Shamrock. with a cross between a pineapple and a clover leaf. 🙂
I thought of these names:
The Blarney Stone
Tipsy McStaggers
The Muddy Bog
Danny Boy’s Pub
The Limerick
Tipsy McStaggers is a pub in Michigan
“TURF FIRE BAR”
The Green Man’s Pub
Mary Mac’s
Lost Irish Rose
I was going to suggest Black and Tan, but did some research and found out that it is very offensive.
I love this names…
But you know in Real life….I know a guy named Seamus Goldberg….
Seriously….so to attract business how about Goldberg’s Irish? lol
Then there is
ring of Kerry
Carlisle’s
Kaelin’s
sibbohan’s
Or
seamus’s Pineapple Portal
The obvious name is: Seamus’ Irish Pub.
Pot of Gold
Or rather Pot ‘o Gold
anann súile = Tipsy Pineapple
I was going to suggest Annan Port.
Seamus’ Pub
Seamus’ Port Pub
The Frolicking Shamrock
The Frolicking Shamrock, Leprechaun’s Lair, Pot O’ Gold Shenanigans
The tipsy leprachaun (not sure how its spelled)
The leprachaun falls Inn
The Green Pineapple
Seamus’ Seaside Shanty Pub
Wild Geese Landing or Wild Goose landing
Disenfranchised Irish fled the indentured slavery and political persecution to become pirates. About 15% of Caribbean pirates were Irish. They were known as “Wild Geese”, and we all know that Seamus is an old pirate 8}
I think “Seamus’s Ireland” would be a fitting name for the bar.
The Black and Tan? Or The Orange and the Green?
Seamus’ Burren?
20. Foxy John’s, Dingle
Ireland’s most famous pub-that-is-also-a-hardware-store. You can get drunk AND get your bike fixed. Only don’t cycle home after, because Dingle is on the sea and the consequences of a wrong turn would be very damp.

(Just thought that was some great Irish humor there!)
How about The Dubliner (or whatever Seamus’ hometown is, like The Limerick, The Corker, The Derryer…).
Bunratty’s (after a famous castle).
These are Irish slang: The Craic, or The Curk (both generally mean “a good time/fun”. Craic is pronounced like “crack”), On The Lash (“go out drinking”), Jammers (“packed full”)
Crock ‘o Gold,
Seamus’ Shebeen,
Docominn = Do Come Inn
póg mo thóin = kiss my ads pronounced pó g (hard g) ma hown
Irish Laughter Pub
I hate when just naming the pub Three Leprechauns in two words is too short so I have to go back and retype the whole thing to post it!
Slàinte mhaith (good health)
Gettin’ Lucky or Kelsey Rose because that’s what I wanted to name my daughter and my husband said it sounded like the name of a bar.
A Wee Spot. Serves as bar name and a description of what you might have there…
Sea Dawg will incorporate Seamus’s name.
A good name for an Irish pub would be The Magpie
Seamus’ Sea Shanty
I think the bar should be called The Shamrock. My great grandmother was Irish, shame I never knew her.
