As these are Old Irish goats, the council encourage participants to consider and suggest a name that reflects their Irish roots and the work they do for Howth. It could be using a name from Irish Mythology, names with Irish language origins or something which has Irish cultural significance.
The project is a collaboration between the Fingal County Council and the Mayo Old Irish Goat Society. While this is an effort to conserve the land, it's also an effort to protect the goats, as they are the last native goat to Ireland. These indigenous animals are on the verge of extinction, and the project hopes to prevent that.
You can submit your name suggestion for one of the kids on the Fingal County Council website.
