Done Actresses, may as well do Actors. Not using those with Irish names. So no Connery, Buttler, McAvoy etc..

So far my favorites are Carlyle and Mcgregor

Graham I am sorry for my ignorance but could Mcgregor also be an Irish surname?
Are "Mc" or "Mac" more common in Scotland or Ireland and is one usage more common in one country?

Robert Carlyle... if he's in something, chances are it will be good. Ravenous and Trainspotting :thumb001:

Mc & Mac can be Scottish. Mac isn't found in Ireland. They have O'

Gregor is a Scottish surname. :)

Why isn't James McAcoy here if "Mc" is a Scottish prefix?

McAvoy is Irish. Mc & O' are Irish, Mc & Mac are Scottish. :):thumb001:

He will pass very well in Northern Italy/Switzerland/France etc...

^^I agree.

He would fit into those three nations especially followed by Belguim and Holland.

He could even fit into the Northern Balkans.
