Caoimhe does not sound like Keeva?

[Sabrina♥JohnJames]

Am i the only one that finds it weird the way her name is spelled?
Caoimhe sounds like naomi not Keeva :blush: i like it though it's pretty but i want her to leave on friday we need Sunshine and Shabby then JOSIE should leave lol

The Irish are stupid when it comes to spelling names. Eoghan is Owen.

[Jack_]

Eoghan :love:

[Niamh.]

it's a different language. Ye do it with English words as well you know. Why is photograph not spelled with an F? Why enough not spelled enouff? every language has different rules.

[Peter Plunker]

Why is Slough not pronounced sluff as in rough or sloo as in through? No, it's pronounced Slow as in plough.

[Peter Plunker]

We have a few in Welsh. DD is th, LL is, well, you can't type it in English. Y is U like in Rygbi and U is ee like in Heddlu (hethlee meaning police).

[Niamh.]

I don't see why some people on here find it oh so confusing tbh, the mh is pronounced like a V same as my name Niamh (Nee-av) It's not that hard to grasp!

Touche!

And somebody at work today asked me why Photograph wasn't spelled with an 'F'. Lol. :hugesmile:

[MrGaryy]

I don't understand the big ****ing deal over her name. Her name is Caoimhe - not Keeva. it's an Irish name and comes from the Irish language, get over it. Ife's name isn;t pronounced like 'knife'. Have a bit of respect.

I was confused with Siobhan for years and years :D

Wow..how dumb are you...we have our own language..and the names are of Irish origin.

Our names were Anglicized when we were occupied..before we kicked you out.

[Niamh.]

I was confused with Siobhan for years and years :D

bh is also pronounced like a V

Don't be so precious. I'll still call her Quaver if it's all the same to you. Besides, she'll be out on friday.

[Niamh.]

she doesn't even pronounce it right herself anyway it's supposed to be pronounced Kweeva not Keeva!

[Big Brother Fan]

In all honesty, you could have just looked up the other 10000000 threads about it already

[Jords]

Eoghan :love:

Eggnog!

[Jords]

In all honesty, you could have just looked up the other 10000000 threads about it already

Oh I see you have Caoimhe already in grey in your sig, confident she'll go?

[Zippy]

Must be really annoying for them to be constantly explaining how to spell and pronounce their names. Especially when they venture out of Ireland.

Its almost cruel to put that lifelong burden on a child. What's wrong with Jane or Emily ffs?

[Stacey.]

I don't even get why they pronounce it like that.

[InOne]

Who cares about her name? She is a ****.

[MrBlack]

Because she is Irish...not English...

Are you actually aware there are other languages other than English..

(or is this place just full of trolls..)

[Big Brother Fan]

I don't even get why they pronounce it like that.

Er...because it's not English

[KKBL]

She doesn't pronounce her name properly though. In Ireland everyone who spells there name "Caoimhe" pronounces it as Queeva. She should change her name to "Keevah" because even though her name is spelt in Irish, it's pronounced in English so it's just bloody confusing.

[Zippy]

Er, Ive been here a damn sight longer than you so less of the troll crap. Do you even know what a troll is?

Clearly not.

And chill the **** out. BB is a UK show not an Irish show so her name is unusual to its main audience.

[Big Brother Fan]

She's a posh Dub, they pronounce things differently up in the Pale

[Big Brother Fan]

oh i see you have caoimhe already in grey in your sig, confident she'll go?

100%

[Niall]

Oh ffs another thread about this, really?? :rolleyes:

[Stacey.]

Er...because it's not English

Why is it any different just because it's Irish though?

[Niall]

This. It is really starting to pee me off how many threads are about Caoimhe's name. If you don't like the freaking spelling of it, spell it Keeva, end of. Now can we discuss something that happened in the show please?? :D

[Big Brother Fan]

Irish is a language staycey

Who pissed in your cereal this morning?

[SoFarSoGood282]

Wow..how dumb are you...we have our own language..and the names are of Irish origin.

Our names were Anglicized when we were occupied..before we kicked you out.

Well said!!:hello::hello::hello::hello::hello::hello:

[InOne]

I wish people would stop bringing Irish politics on to the forum. A lot of the viewers are quite young on here and don't know about Irish names and the Irish language. We're here to talk about BB.

[AndyJK]

I have never come across this name with the spelling or pronunciation before. That's the Gaelic language for you. I do write it as it sounds as its easier

[MrBlack]

I wish people would stop bringing Irish politics on to the forum. A lot of the viewers are quite young on here and don't know about Irish names and the Irish language. We're here to talk about BB.

Exactly..

But there has been so much vitriol towards the fact that she is Irish..as opposed to just another BB HM.

[MeMyselfAndI]

she is a weirdo having a name like that :joker:

[MeMyselfAndI]

Who pissed in your cereal this morning?

:laugh:

[Barbie]

I cant read Caiomhe as Keeva even though i know thats how it is pronounced

I say in my head cay-o-me

[InOne]

Exactly..

Well you're always gonna get idiots on a forum. But most are sort of normal.

[Zippy]

Hopefully after friday we'll never have to see or hear her stupid name again.

[Stacey.]

Irish is a language staycey

At least spell my name right when it's right there infront of you.

[Niall]

This.

[Joelle.]

Agreed Zippy! :thumbs:

[Oooo_get_her]

Why is it any different just because it's Irish though?

quweever LOL isn't that like an ugly woman who farts from her vagina. quweever LOL total fail and self rapeage of a name.

[Nemo123]

We have to learn Irish for 14 years in school, and at the end of it we still speak English better than the English.

[Niamh.]

she is a weirdo having a name like that :joker:

Oi! I suppose I'm weirdo as well then:bawling:

[Shasown]

Wow..how dumb are you...we have our own language..and the names are of Irish origin.

Our names were Anglicized when we were occupied..before we kicked you out.

I see history isnt your strongpoint.

She's a posh Dub, they pronounce things differently up in the Pale

She isnt posh, she may want to be but she is more scrubber

[StGeorge]

Wow..how dumb are you...we have our own language..and the names are of Irish origin.

Thanks for that....it reminds me that there are total numpties on both sides. :rolleyes:
