As stated in form 8 citizenship application form, the requirement is for "Copies of three different proofs of residence in the island of Ireland for both applicant and spouse/civil partner
for 3 months prior to the date of application showing date and name and current address."

This means either 3 documents for each month that shows both your names on, or if you don't have that, separate documents that show each of your names for that period of time.

While I agree with @chaoclive that a solicitor is not really required, you might want to consider getting a solicitor or someone you trust, who is detail-oriented, to check that you are submitting all the required documentation, etc. If you're not confident in interpreting the requirements, you will probably save yourself some trouble down the line if it turns out you've not filled out everything or submitted everything correctly.

Mind you, even if you do that, that is no guarantee they won't ask you for additional documents anyway. For my application (also based on marriage to Irish national), I was asked for a document I'd already sent to them and another document that hadn't been mentioned anywhere as required.
