But at least most people know the name Corinne, and seeing spelled Korrine would most likely be able to guess at the correct pronounciation. (I know I would). But Irish names with gaelic spellings are very hard to pronounce and spell for most English speakers, and I just would rather spare the kid having to correct people all the time. So I stand by my statement, better that it be a middle name.
(Being half Irish myself I love gaelic names and am very fond of Niamh at the moment, but would never use it for these reasons).
