Best Answer

buachaill

or

garsún

or

gasúr
That's an easy one: Buachaill which interestingly derives from the compound of cow and servant (bo + cail) so literally the word for a boy is "cowboy". This word originated from the social position of the person rather than the age so the "boy" could have been in his thirties. Today it refers to someone who is young regardless of social position or occupation.

Other words for 'boy' in Irish: gasúr, garsún, stócach(over 15)
