[Opinions] Re: Deirdre and Aoife
I should amend my question and ask people where they live. I've had a theory for years that people in the UK use the "DEER-dree" pronunciation because of feminine Greek names ending in an "-e" use the "ee" sound. They're used to that alignment. Does that make sense? Veronica Deirdre is gorgeous. The two names bring out the best in each other. Deirdre Maud makes me think of Maud Gonne and William Butler Yeats. *sigh*Aoife is the rebellious fairy princess, isn't she? Aoife Clementine is perfection. :-D
