HelpRe: Should Gaelic-spelled names be used outside Ireland?
in reply to a message by Brendon_CB
Ireland wasn’t the only country that spoke Gaelic though there are of course differences between the language spoken in Ireland and in parts of Scotland. I live in a part of Scotland where Lallans rather than Gaelic was spoken and yet Gaelic names are popular here despite initial issues with spelling. I love Eilidh, Eilionoir and Marsaili amongst others and have met people called Eilidh, Mairead, Orfhlaith, Marsaili, Aine and Mhairi is also used as a name in its own right though originally it would not have been.
Yes they should be used outside of Ireland and Scotland as while you will have to spell your name correctly a lot people you come into contact with every day will quickly learn how to spell it.
Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from
