Reilly for a boy?

I need name opinions! I have always loved the name Reilly for a boy. I'm just a little hesitant because Riley has become a more popular girls name in the past few years. Both of our boys have Irish names... Aiden and Ciaran (pronounced Keer-in) and we really want an Irish name for this little guy, too. I also really like Asher, but it doesn't sound as nice with our Irish last name.

Opinions??? Suggestions?? Thanks so much!

    My daughter's name is Reilly Elizabeth she is named after my Nana Elizabeth Reilly. I love the name for a girl or boy!! I have never seen it spelled the way I spell it so I really like it!! I'm having another girl in Aug. her name is going to be Raelyn Marie named after my mil, my sil & my sis. Rae is my mil's middle name & Lynn is my sil's middle name & Marie is my sis' middle name. Sorry for the long story :)
