I am assuming that you mean the box that comes after Dublin.

At first glance it looks like P Jade.

Are there any other examples of the priest's name on the same page?

You give no link so no means of looking myself.

Much better than looking at bits!!

The link you have given me Sinann is for 1853 and the baptism was in January 1854.  The name on the 1853 appears to be Dill.

This doesn't look the same as the 1854 baptism.

It's on same page. I selected year 1854 and month January to be sure.
P Wade? I can't see another name like it. There's a name of a priest which looks like Phelan for some baptisms.
I agree with the others. Much better to look at the register and compare other writing. I also find it easier to adjust size and contrast on NLI site. Naming the parish would have helped.

P Wade certainly looks feasible. I can't see another entry by him.

I think the other names are P. Nolan and D.M. (initials).

Most of the other entries for Dublin are Dublin Road.  If you look hard, (at least to me), I can see Road with a H (D?)  C over top.

I've tried adding red dots to show what I mean:
