Irish Names Video
I stumbled across this on Facebook, and I thought some here might find it amusing. If you don't want to click the link, just search "Irish barista song" on YouTube, and it should be the first one.

And since this is the opinions board, what do you think of the names in the video? Do you prefer the Irish spellings or the anglicized versions?

Hi !!!
Oh..it is funny! LOL
It is so cute!
Aoife I dislike the sound. Same for Eve and Eva
Siobhan also read with B is not my cup of tea. Shevonne is interesting instead but the spelling is so different that I can't see it as tied to Siobhan.
Domhnall* is great! Far better than Donald. I love the actor Domhnall Gleeson!
Niamh* has a beautiful sound! I prefer it because Neve is pronounced as the Italian for "snow" in my mind.
Meadhb and Maeve have an horrible meaning so...no. I much prefer Mauve and Malva (like the colour).
Donncha* and Duncan are both amazing.
Béibhinn* is actually one of my favourite Irish names.
Blathnaid ... I prefer it spelled Blathnat.
Caoimhe I dislike the sound so Keeva is the same.
Roisin* I really like how it rings!
Aisling* same as Roisin.
Tadhg too strange, I prefer the spelling Teague.
