Kieran / Ciaran
How do you pronounce the name Kieran/Ciaran and which spelling do you like? This is for a friend. The middle name is probably going to be Isaac.

I like Ciaran, but I also like Kieran. I just prefer the former more because the latter begins to look trendy as it follows the K inserted into names trend (even though I realize it is not a made-up name). Besides that, I think Ciaran Isaac just looks more aesthetically pleasing than Kieran Isaac.
Oh, and I pronounce both Kier-in (Kier as in Beer, and in as in, well, in).

I pronounce it KEER-an and adore Ciarán. It looks all nice and clean whereas Kieran looks just messy and thrown together.
