Help[Opinions] Re: Saoirse
in reply to a message by Susannah
You're asking someone who would name dds Niamh and Aoife tomorrow. So I'm not the most objective one here.
Saoirse consistently gets a lot of love on this site, more than I would have predicted. I know spelling and pronunciation will be always be an issue, but I don't think asking someone to learn something new is so tragic. As long as a name has history and meaning, getting to know how it should be spelled and pronounced is an opportunity. Well, that's how I see it anyway.
I don't watch American Idol. But I'm told there was a Siobhan on there once. See? America didn't fall apart. :-D (Well, OK. It has kind of. But that had nothing to do with Siobhan.)
By the way, Holly, Phoebe and Violet make me want to run out and buy a new straw hat. Very fresh and spring-like. Saoirse Holly and Phoebe Violet, perhaps?

I totally agree on the learning about a name with history and meaning thing and I love the name Saoirse :)
