No. Siobhan is "shi-VAWN." End of story.

Pronouncing it any other way would be as ridiculous as pronouncing Sean "seen." Don't do it. If you truly don't like the "shi-VAWN" pronunciation, then it's time for another name entirely.

I'm sorry if I'm being harsh, but I'm Irish. My niece's mn is Siobhan. I'm biased.

I'm glad you like other Irish names. Sinead ("shi-NADE") is one of my all time favorites. :-)
