Help[Opinions] Re: Deirdre and Aoife (eta)
in reply to a message by Bear
I once knew someone who knew a Deirdre. She always said "DEER-dree", and I must admit I like that pronunciation more than the other I've heard; "DEE-druh". Just based on sound alone. ETA: I'm in Canada. I should also admit that "DEER-dree" became "DEE-dree" more often than not.
I've always thought of Deirdre as "tough broad" type of name. Maybe I picked up that association from my friend who knew the Deirdre - she was a scrappy thing. Because of that, I'd probably make a blockbuster tough-broad combo for it, like:
Veronica Deirdre (I quite like this actually)
Deirdre Roxanne
Deirdre Maud
Vera Deirdre
Rose Deirdre "Rosie"
Aoife is the very essence of fairy-folk spirit. It makes me think of something sweet and light, like sun shining through honey in a mason jar, or cookies dusted with icing sugar. So I'd do something like
Aoife Lisette
Aoife Clementine
Aoife Marianne
Adelaide Aoife (cookies and lemonade)
Annabelle Aoife
Aoife Lucy
