[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's recap. The Irish on the thread all say 'no'. There Americans are familiar with a range of names, for various reasons-- Siobhan, Sinead, Aoife, etc. Deirdre and Fiona were probably terribly strange at one time.... I say name with the true spelling. The more exposed, the more they become more "familiar" names to everyone! I have faith that we can learn.[/quote] [b]Deirdre and Fiona are pronounced pretty much the.way they are spelled.[/b] A name that seems totally to invent sounds is just ridiculous.[/quote] Deirdre and Fiona are pronounced pretty much the way they are spelled IN AMERICAN ENGLISH. But American English is not the only way to pronounce words written in the Latin alphabet.[/quote]
