Re: Maureen!
in reply to a message by vigdis
It's my niece's name (Maureen Elizabeth). She's 26 and goes by Mo. Biased I am, but still count me in the "love it" column. My SIL had a thing for Maureen O'Hara, which totally worked out for my niece. I'm the annoying aunt that calls her by her full name because I'm still tickled pink they chose it. :0)
Here in the U.S. the stress is on the second syllable. But I love it even more when My mother says it with an Irish brogue. The stress is on the first syllable and the tongue is allowed to make the most out of the "r" in the middle.
Maureen Glynis is my stock combo for it.
