seoirse pronunciation

And spelling their names “phonetically” looks SO WRONG. Since she was wee, Sorcha has been plagued by people asking her why she pronounces her name ‘funny’ (funny being not ‘Sor-Kah’ – which would be common at home). Not surprising when the nick names he has got are, ‘keiry’, ‘ronny’ and ‘kron’. It has been traditionally Anglicized as Hugh.

Siobhan is quite common in US, so surprise people still can’t pronounce it. If I can help with any other pronunciations let me know.

What about people who use traditional African or Indian names are they prententious too? If you want to knowhow o prounce irish names just ask me. tommys is kinda complicated!! Even stranger, most can’t even pronounce Catrin, yet have no problem with Katrina. Ciannait – never heard this one to be honest, but i reckon it’s either “key-an-itch”, “keen-itch” or “can-nit” This is fairly important and the presence of a fada changes a name’s sound. I totally apprciate that english speakers have difficulties in pronouncing words or names as they should be pronounced in their own languages. My sister is Brigid and we call her Brighde sometimes. Gin – I would pronounce Rionadh as Reen-ah but am open to corrections on that one!

Both my parents sadly passed. I tell people it’s just like Laura but with an M. still, I always get Mara? Thanks. For example: Aoife has been sounded out as EE-fe but there is an “o” in the name and it is sounded out very briefly when pronouncing it ,almost to the point of not actually hearing the letter.
Any thoughts at all? I’ve seen a lot of people Anglicize it to Eileen but I am interested Gealic pronunciation. Not sure about Kaie, but Cariad is the Welsh verb “to love”, pronounced “CARRY-add”. Siobhan is most definitely pronounced along the lines of “shiv-awn” or “Seo-vawn”, there is no “r” in the pronunciation at all.

Hi there people. @Andrea – I’d guess Sioda is pronounced “shee-da.” Looks like it means “silk” in Irish and it’s been used as a baby name at least a couple of times in Ireland. I saw somewhere that it is AL-yeh, but not sure if it’s AL as in AL-len or like ALL? I’m not an Irish speaker, but these links should be helpful: Hello, I’m so happy to have found this page.

Gruffydd – Griff-ith (Th as in THE not as in THROW) When I was born (in the U.S.), my parents wanted to give me the Gaelic girls’ name for “Irish” or “Ireland” (which they told me was Éireann). Nobody can tell you it is wrong just because it’s been known in the past by another spelling.

That is because irish is another language.Irish names are prounounced “as Gaeilge” (in gaelic), which is the irish language Either “granny” or “grainy” the pronunciation of this name is just never quite right. Ciannait In my informed opinion, using Irish spellings outside of Ireland is just pretentious or nationalistic to a fault.

I would hardly call my parents pretentious. As well as hundreds of other Irish names!! not eefa or eefe or anything like that.

I am not certain on the spelling but I heard it is pronounced like the letters c(soft) and j in english.

I wonder if anyone would be able to help me with the pronunciation of these unusual names! Most of the names popular in Ireland today — names like Jack, Sarah, Adam and Emma — are easy to pronounce.
