I personally had no problem recognizing Siomha as Sheeva, nor do I think it would be a major problem among BtN members, but most people would pronounce it see-OH-mah. We're pretty educated about Gaelic pronunciations here, but even I, with a name as simple as Aileen, have to correct people almost daily. The problem is that when you change in to Sheeva it looks like a Hindi name. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it just seems totally different and unrelated to Siomha. I'm not wild about Scathach because it's like scat hatch or for some reason like Saskatchewan.
