Help[Opinions] Re: Irish names
in reply to a message by Lily
Oh. I hadn't heard that. I've only ever heard her name as "SEER-shuh." Perhaps I'm not paying close enough attention.
I'm glad you like the Clare spelling. Sometimes I think I'm the only one. I fear most people think of it as a misspelling, when really it's the English way. The French Claire looks prissy to me. I pronounce them the same way so there's no logic to it. It's just my weird take, influenced no doubt by my sister and niece.

I read an interview where Saoirse Ronan says she pronounces her name to rhyme with "inertia" (so, sir-shah, probably) but she knows it's not the correct pronunciation.
I'm a little irritated at her... before Atonement came out one of my favorite sibsets was Saoirse, Orla, and Ronan, and now I can't use it.
