Jeez why do you fools keep on writing "Ireland" when it's clearly "Éire".

QED.

I really don't care if you hate her she's a bitch. Just don't say her name wrong, most of you can say Novak Djokovic, not exactly easier is it?

No one is asking you to. Nadia is a Russian name, doesn't mean you have to learn Russian to pronounce it. My name is Niamh, there is no english translation for it, it's an Irish name, so I would expect people do me the courtesy of atleast trying to pronounce it, it's not really hard for people of average intelligence to retain the pronunciations really.

Well, If a person with a Welsh name introduced them selves to me, I would do my best with it anyway! I wouldn't be expecting them to change their name that's for sure!

I know I'm just being silly. I just used it as an example to help you understand that it is easier for us with non Gaelic tongues (or thought processes) to write Keeva etc.. I still have to do a double take when her correct spelling is used.

I'm Scottish and my mum speaks a wee bit Gaelic.

I have been out with a couple of Irish girls in my time and once lost contact with one because I couldn't spell her name - it is pronounced Breege but I know it's not spelled like that.

Whoever can't spell her name by now is a lazy dick you're basically being a cocky bastard towards Ireland.

Her name is so easy to spell, get use to it.

I always just write 'Keeva' because 1. I don't know how to spell her name and 2. I usually can't be bothered checking how to spell her name lol. People know who I mean anyway lol.

I can spell and pronounce her name fine, I call her Cameltoe because of those bloody leggings she lives in.

I learnt Irish for a bit, so know how to pronounce all the names and all that. It's pretty simple really.
