[Opinions] Máiréad
What do you think of the name Máiréad ? I would never actually use the name since I'm not Irish but It's still one of my favorite names.

It's beautiful. More people that are not Irish are using Irish names anymore.

It's pronounced mah-RAYD.
I really like it, and it's not too 'Irish' for a non-Irish person to use- the pronounciation is fairly straightforward, and I think people would get the hang of spelling very quickly.
