Hope you don't mind my input for discussion. Most of the Gilnean paganism that I've written is a take from multiple pagan cultures. Its most evident in the wickers which are heavily gaelic inspired. Granted, we went with a proto-irish feel for them mostly but ive included elements pertaining to germanic paganism and even pure fantasy elements. Honestly from a lore perspective we know next to nothing about ancient practices of druids in human society. As you'd stated, hallow's end is basically halloween and noblegarden (which has been linked to human druids) is essentially easter. Granted one could also spin noblegarden as a fertility or holiday of growth, two concepts not unique to any type of religion, but even then we know nothing about druidism. I don't think celtic paganism is necessarily wrong as a waypoint for people to use, and though i believe this has been retconned, the wicker man (as it was in vanilla) was said to contain living sacrifices within it. Assuming this carried over or is somehow rooted in some sort of ancient practice, we can't necessarily rule it out. I do think it'd be interesting to see more blends of paganism, as you said warcraft is its own world, or unique fantasy practices mixed in as well.
