Most people living in Northern Ireland are entitled to put “Ireland” down as their country of citizenship.

No, all people born there, have parents born there or grandparents born there are able to claim Irish citizenship.

I lived in N Ireland for about 19 years but, being born in England, can't.

My grandchildren, also born in England, can because their mother w born there and even if their mother wasn't they'd still be able to do so based on their grandmother's status. They also have right to UK citizenship.

All that pre-dates the UK joining the EEC let alone leaving the EU.

But this is nothing to do with the .eu registration which is, if I understand the article correctly, to do with businesses rather then individuals.
