Help[Opinions] Re: Morrigan and Aylin
in reply to a message by Callie
That's how they are traditionally pronounced. Morrigan's an old Irish name. Names like Eoghan (sounds like Owen) or Oonagh (sounds like OO-na) are other examples of silent G's.
Personally, I've never heard of Aylin, but according to a few comments, the Turkish pronunciation is indeed eye-lin.
I kinda like Morrigan pronounced both ways, but traditionally it'd be the first way. If you wanted to say it like MOR-i-gan, then I'd just consider it a different, trendier name.

Those names don't have silent g's. They have silent gh's. Like in English, t and th don't make the same sound. I've seen the silent gh before, just not a silent g in the middle of the word.
