HelpRe: Why? (nt)
in reply to a message by Miranda
Oh no, it's not that I asked about the spelling! Did I put that wrong? I just wanted to know which name you liked better, Saoirse or Sorsha. Of course they are and I see them both as two completely seperate names! Sorsha isn't supposed to be another spelling variant of Saoirse!

Well... I still prefer Saoirse ;-)
I'm more familiar with Saoirse, and I really like its meaning.
However, I'd be willing to come around to Sorsha if I knew more about it. What's its meaning, its origin? *Insert obligatory caution about "baby name" sites/books"*

Well, I admit if I knew that I would be glad for I don't know the meaning of the name Sorsha either...! :-/ But I'll let y'all know as soon as I found out. ;-) To be honest, I wouldn't wonder if it had the same or a similar meaning as Sorcha. But we'll hopefully know, soon! :-)

I never thought of Sorcha
Weird! But I could see Sorsha being a form of Sorcha, yes. I seem to recall Sorcha being properly pr. SOR-ka or something similar though, so if Sorsha's a form of Sorcha, then I'd bet it was a phonetic respelling based on a misunderstanding of Sorcha's real pronunciation.

Hmm, possible. Don't ask me but I could have sworne that I read somewhere that Sorcha is to be pronounced SOR-ra. Wait...
Here: http://www.firstname.de (just type in 'Sorcha' in the above free field on the left, start the search and then click on the name)
It says: "gesprochen: sor-ra", which means "pronounced: sor-ra".
Weired, uh?
