Re: Different pronounciation for Siobhan
I have only ever heard of Shi Vawn,What sort of sound were you looking for if you dont like that
There are Siofra and Siomha but I am not sure how to pronounce them
Sinead = shi NAYD
Sian = Shan or Siana which I would quess to be Shan uh
Sine = SHEE na
Shantae = shahn TAY

I really like Sinead, Sian and Sine.
The first time I saw Siobhan I thought it was pronounced see-OB-(h)en.
When I found out it was pronounced shi-VAWN I was quite disappointed. I really dislike Yvonne, and that is what the pronounciation reminds me of. I'd really like something with the same feeling as see-OB(H)-ahn and similar spelling.
Thanks for Siomha, I really like that name.
