Help[Opinions] Re: Toirdhealbhach
in reply to a message by xPrincess27x
The "dh" is silent and in this case I would say the "bh" as silent too. So Toor-a-lock - same or similar to Turlough.
I dislike both Turlough and Toirdhealbhach. I would be surprised to find Toirdhealbhach used nowadays - it's mostly an historic spelling. Turlough is rare enough as it is. I googled it and didn't find any modern Toirdhealbachs - most of the references are to the famous harper Turlough O'Carolan(Toirdhealbhach Ó Chearbhallán.
