HelpMy Irish Roommates
As a lot of you seem to be interested in names of an Irish origin, I thought you might find it interesting to look at a "represtative sample" of 18-20 year olds that I live with in the flat (yes, I have 7 flatmates).
Aoife - very common. Pronounced EE-fuh
Emma Jane - said together
Meadhbh - many different spellings, but this is the one she has. Pronounced Mave
Padraig - Pronounced PAW-rick also loads of spellings. (mn Eoin. Pronounced as Owen)
Nuala - Pronounced NOO-luh
Peter
Roisin - also very common. Pronounced ROW-sheen (row as in, row your boat)
No revelations here, I know. Just thought you might find it (and I cringe to use this word, but I've used interesting twice now) neat.

Aoife - very common. Pronounced EE-fuh -nms at all
Emma Jane - said together -cute
Meadhbh - many different spellings, but this is the one she has. Pronounced Mave -wouldn't use, but don't oppose to
Padraig - Pronounced PAW-rick also loads of spellings. (mn Eoin. Pronounced as Owen)-like Owen, well, Eion, but not so sure abot Padraig
Nuala - Pronounced NOO-luh - again, definitely nms
Peter- like
Roisin - also very common. Pronounced ROW-sheen (row as in, row your boat)-nms
These names were interesting, it's nice to see what other countries name their children,not to mention how they spell (or would it be pronounce?) names.
