Re: Eilidh
in reply to a message by Lily
It would have never flown in my neck of the woods, by it I mean Cillian. MY husband persisted in pronuncing it with an "h" Chillian and my mother would pronunce the C as an "S". I did not name him Sillian or Silly Its Killian. My mother said the Kill Ian thing and you know what I get a lot more like the beer then I ever get Kill Ian. He is now 3 and I still love it just as much. I personaly have no opportunity to use Ceilidh or Kaley even if I liked it. we already have Caela, Kyla, Kendall, Kailyn, Kristy, Kimmie.... I am not doing any more K like names!

Eilidh is really pretty. I also don't mind Ailie, but Eilidh is still better :)
I'd never have thought of Chillian. Some people might have said Sillian but some people say KEE-ra for Kyra and some say KY-ra, some say SAI-ra some SAH-ra (Sara) so I think it would have been just fine. Killian probably makes it easier, though.

I do like Ailie as well that might be a contender for me to persuade the DH!
