HelpRe: WDYTO Eilidh?
in reply to a message by FirChlis
I love it. It's much nicer than Helen.
And I would guess that it is said AY-lee because Ceilidh is prn CAY-lee. My boyfriends little sister is named Ceili, which is a word that was anglicized from Ceilidh. Ceili is an irish dance event, kind of like a disco or a nightclub or a square dance. Of course though traditional music is played. I almost went to a Ceili once but I had to work.
