Questions about some Irish girls' names
Aoibhgreine - Is this pronounced EEV-gren or EV-eh-gren? Or something else?
Ailionóra - I read on another site that this was just made-up to be an Irish variant of Eleanor, is pronounced just like Eleanora, and is not a legitimate name. Is any of this true?
Eimile - This is apparently an Irish form of Emily. It seems like it could be made-up too. And how would you pronounce it?
Fennore - I saw this was a variant of Fionúir, and I was wondering how to pronounce it (Fennore, not Fionúir).

Have you tried namenerds? I find the site useful and it has never let me down ... but I don't use it much.
