Irish name pronunciation?

I found a lovely Irish name that is a form of Vincent, but I can't find the pronunciation. It's spelled Uinseann. Can somebody give it to me phonetically?

Irish name pronunciation?
OON shan





Meaning: Gaining a victory
Reply:It's kind of like "weenshun" or "winshin" if you put less of an accent on it. The U and I form a dipthong. Instead of saying "oo" "ii" as two separate syllables, they run together and form a "we" sound. The "sse" forms is a distinct "sh" as in Sean..
Reply:Uinseann


"win-shan"


This name is the Irish version of Vincent, and means "conquering." There are almost thirty Saint Vincents.
