[Opinions] Re: How would you pronounce this?
in reply to a message by little_kit
I know how it's pronounced but only because I'm a name freak and I've only known Niamh's pronunciation for about six years or so. It has a lovely sound as do many Irish names, but those spellings can be hard to work with sometimes. I *love* traditional spellings, but then again, I'd want everyone to be able to recognize my child name.

Yeah, that's exactly how I feel. Being Irish, I would want my daughter to have a name that expresses her heritage (unlike mine!) but I don't want her to always have it being mispronounced.
