As far as Gaelic names go, that one is *particularly* gruesome to pronounce, but it can be broken down:"ríogh" = "ree"
"bhard" = "vard"
"án" = "awn"
ree-VARD-awnA fluent Gaelic speaker could back that up for you (or tell you that I'm totally wrong :-p), so if you know any it would help!

No, no, no :-( I thought I'd corrected this straight after posting, but I must have missed: It's REER-dawn. The "ghbh" all together eliminate into nothing-ness, giving REER-dawn. Sorry about that!

I think it's the Gaelic spelling of Riordan, if that helps
