ArchivesRe: Meaning of Name: Taise (tie-eese)
in reply to a message by GroomSign
We named our daughter Taise after a local princess, who also gave her name to one of the Glens of Antrim where we live.
"Taise" is the Irish Gaelic for "soft" or (unknown to us pre-Christening!)"damp" and is pronounced "Taysha" by Irish Gaelic speakers: in Antrim it tends to be pronounced "Tays".
I attach a link to [provide a bit more about Princess Taise of Rathlin, being the Northern Irish island from which my family come:
