Reel in 6/8?

This is written in 6/8, so I suppose it can't really be a reel, but I call it a reel because I count it in groups of four, not six (or three).
Is there a name for this rhythm? And did I write this tune or just remember it? I'm not sure; I wrote/found it on the way to a festival (Maldon), and nobody I asked there could put name to it - so I did.
