"Niamh"
It's Gaelic, which has the most confusing pronunciations EVER. Help would be appreciated!
How do you pronounce this Irish name?
Niamh - NEE-uhv ("uhv" sounds like the word "of")
C煤 Chulainn - coo-CHU-lin (CHU rhymes with "the", "ch" like in the word loch)
The stress is shown with the capital letters
Reply:A chairde,
An n-aonta铆onn sibh gur f茅idir Niamh a fhuaimni煤 mar NEEOO / NEEAW thuas i n-Ulaidh?
Do you agree that the name can also be pronounced as NEEOO / NEEAW up in Ulster?
Le gach dea-mh茅in / Best,
Gear贸id
