[Opinions] Re: Suibhne
in reply to a message by BrilliantBlue
A few questions on Suibhne...
1. How do you pronounce it? I would have no freaking clue without a helpful guide. My first guess would be "soo-eeb-nee", but I see that the actual way is "siv-na". Ok.
2. If you know, how common/weird/archaic is it in Ireland/Scotland/etc.? I have no idea. It would be very unique indeed here in Winnipeg, Canada :)
3. Do you like the name? I usually am not too keen on names that I have no clue how to say. The letters look very nice, though. And "sivna" is a pleasant sound.
4. What do you think of Daniel Suibhne? Oh my. I thought this was a girl's name. Ok then. I am not overly fond of Daniel to begin with, so the combo does not leave me warm and fuzzy. I think a less staunchly traditional name might look more interesting with it. Like Theo Suibhne, Felix Suibhne or Lewis Suibhne.
5. Does it conjure up any images for you? Not really I am afraid :(
