My first username was chuck.pass which means chuck.bottom basically, I probably thought this was a sex forum.

[Kyle]

I think my name (Kyle) is Scottish for a gap of land with water running in between joining two larger bodies of water.

My entire name is Scottish.

Some Irish names for me are really hard to pronounce, I know Caoimhe is pronounced Kee-Va but if I'm reading it like off a list I always say it different, like Kai- O - Me. I didn't know that Niamh was pronounced Neev until recently, until then I was saying Naomi idk why I do this though.

Eoin is also an Irish name right? If I didn't know it I'd probably say it like:

e, like "and" in French, et - o, like "to" in French, au, in

Eoin is pronounced the same as Owen just Oh-in

I thought Eoin was pronounced E O IN, Why am I so bad at pronouncing these names?

[King Gizzard]

Thought it would be something like Oi In knowing you Irish

[smudgie]

Because Irish is a different language, the pronunciation doesn't seem to make sense when you're using the English language as your base to work from. Like the reason Niamh is pronounced Neeve is because in the Irish alphabet there is no letter V so MH together or BH together make a V sound

It's not accents that's the difference Nathan, Irish is a different language

I thought it was pronounced the same as 'Ian'. I've been saying (or thinking) it wrong all these years then. :S There was a Scottish footballer called Eoin Jess that was pronounced 'Ian' like that.

James! Scottish Gaelic should be similar to ours Poor Eoin Jess was probably just too polite to correct everyone
