Name of these tunes

I'm looking for tune names for the first two tunes in the McKenna-set that Patrick Street plays on their second album and their live-album. The third tune is Up Leitrim and it's already in the tune section. Right now I call them McKenna's I and II, but I guess there are better names.

Here are my abc-transcriptions of the tunes:
X:1
T:McKenna's I
M:3/4
L:1/8
R:jig
D:Patrick Street 2, Live from Patrick Street
K:Amix
D |: EAA ABd | cAG E2D |EFG EFG | EAF GED | EAA ABd | cAG Acd | cBc ABG |1 FDD D2D :|2 FDD D2e |
|: f2d dcd |f2d d2e| f2d e2d | c2A A2e | fga efg | fed fed | cBc ABG |1 FDD D2e :|2 FDD D2

X:2
T:McKenna's II
M:3/4
L:1/8
R:jig
D:Patrick Street 2, Live from Patrick Street
K:Amix

|: cBA e2A | f2A e2A | cBA e2A | fed cdB | cBA e2A | f2A e2A | Ace faf | ecA A3 :|

Re: Name of these tunes

The first one is Connie the Soldier, #212 in Norbek's jig files, and here as: www.thesession.org/tunes/display/373 .

The second one is listed as John McKenna's and Judy Callahan's by Norbek, #213. I haven't been able to find it here, but I haven't searched very hard.

The 2nd is a version of the Night Cap.
