ArchivesRe: PRONUNCIATION?
in reply to a message by SIOBHAN
Without checking any reference sources, I'm pretty sure it's pronounced: "show - VAHN"
When Daividh signs on later today, I'm sure he can either confirm or correct that, as he's a Celtic kinda guy, and cool, too. (Even if he doesn't care for anagrams.) :)

Hi Nan,
You're too kind, especially in light of my recent testiness (write part of it off to 8 hours a day in a hard chair all this week at the Lexington Hyatt absorbing "Demand Flow Technology: A Manufacturing Philosophy for the Rest of the Week" or something).
Too much free Danish always makes me cranky. Love yoo guys! :)
Oh yeah, "Siobhan". "Show-VAHN" will work fine, as will Shuh-VON. Even different parts of Ireland pronounce it different ways. Recently discussed on Jenn Daire's site. Any way ya cut it, it means "Jane" (I think).

@@@@ Nah, I'm not *that* kind. I'm just honest. :)

@@@@ Hah! You want testiness? You should see how testy *I* am right now. I just got done dashing off a rebuttal to an ignorant letter which appeared in my local newspaper today that was lashing out against animal rescue organizations. I'm tired right now, and ready to pack in for the night. I'll tell you about it sometime when I'm wound up again. :)

@@@@ We love yoo back! You're our bro', you know! :)

@@@@ Yeah, *that's* the way it's supposed to sound -- Shuh-VON. I know a chick named Siobhan, and now I remember that's the way she says her name. I must've been pronouncing it Noo Yawk style. :)
