Big Brother Fan 25-06-2010 06:39 PM
I prounounce it Kwee-va, the right way

Smithy 25-06-2010 06:41 PM
Reading it for the first time I thought it said Kayholme :|

But now Keeva

Livia 25-06-2010 06:41 PM
I don't have a problem pronouncing it. Just spelling it.

Nemo123 25-06-2010 06:45 PM

It's only Eire on the stamps. You'll never hear us say we're from Eire.

AngelChair 25-06-2010 06:53 PM

We'll make a poll, shall we?

Qwee-va,like I say every other Caoimhe I know. I find it amusing how people can find an Irish name so difficult.

Big Brother Fan 25-06-2010 07:05 PM
No Irish person really says Eire unless you were speaking in complete Irish.

Also Spitfire is a ****

King Gizzard 25-06-2010 07:05 PM
kay-ome-ee

I don't care if its not pronounced like that officially, I still say it like that.

Just like I still call Niamh, Knee-am

Spitfire's from the United Kingdom doncha know. The only part of the UK where you'll find pictures of the queen hanging on the wall.

AngelChair 25-06-2010 07:12 PM
It's a shame people don't use their native tongue more. This makes me sad. :)
