Today at least, my favourite is Fáinne (FAWN-yuh) for a girl. It means ring or halo in Gaelic._____________________________________________________________________♥Elinor♥

Cailin is just girl in Irish, I don't think it's a name from a Myth...Also, isn't it pronouced Cohl-EENCaroline :-)

I always thought Caoimhe was pronounced KEV-ah or KEEV-ah.. I could be way off though.
