The republic of Ireland has two official languages. In Irish, the official name of the country is "Éire". In English the official name is "Ireland". We call ourselves 'Irish' in English and 'Éireannaigh' in Irish. Historically, the early people who lived here are recorded as being the Celts, but there is little evidence that any of us are pure Celts nowadays - there's been a lot of Vikings, Normans, and English here since then. Poetically and in the Irish language the people were referred to as Gaels.
