[Opinions] Re: Tadhg pronounciation

It's like tiger as far as I can tell.
Teague looks like the word league, so I wouldn't use that.
Teige looks like beige, tayzh, so not that either
Teigue is ... eh, looks more like "teegh" or "taygh" but could work. Tieg too.
Tighe is weird bc the gh seems like it could be silent
Tygue stands a good chance of being said like tiger, IMO. I've never seen it used, but I think I'd pick it.
The main reason I don't like the name is because of the pronunciation issue where I live.
It's a pretty cool name, though. NMS, I'm not into T names ... and also it's a little too much like "tiger." If it's misheard as short for tiger, it'd sound self-consciously sporty, like Champ or Buster.
