Irish name pronunciations?

Can anyone tell me how you pronounce these Irish Baby names?





Sadhbh


Sadb


Saibh


Sithmaith


Siomha

Irish name pronunciations?
Sadhbh is pronounced sive like the word five but with a s instead of an f.





Sadb this isnt an Irish name or is an incorrect spelling of Sadhbh.





Saibh this isnt a real Irish name either and its possibly also an incorrect spelling of Sadhbh, but it is lik eth Irish word raibh which is pronaounced rev or row depending on the dialect your speaking, so "Saibh" should be pronounced sev or sow.





Sithmaith isnt an irish name either. I looked it up online and found a few claims that its means good pecase because maith means good (which it does) and sith means peace but the word sith doesnt mean anything in irsh. However it would be pronounced sih-maw, with the si sounding like sit without the t.





Siomha would be pronounced see-o-wa
