I think it is lovely... but I like Irish names.

I love it, although it isn't very practical outside of Ireland. Then again, I'm in the US and would name dds Niamh and Aoife tomorrow, so who am I to say no?One quibble. I believe the correct pronunciaiton is "breed" not "bried" as BtN has it. Irish Gaelic "i's" are pronounced the same way French ones are, "ee," no? I met a woman recently in Ireland named Breda ("BREE-da") which I thought was pretty. (Obviously that is an Anglicized spelling.)

Anyone who remembers meon the boards about two years ago knows that I like this name. :)For those who don't remember, I have a prior posting name that took its base from this name. I think it's lovely. It looks and sounds good to me.
