I don't like that either. Most languages have one or two eccentricities that I can learn to work around and even rationalize on some level. Ex: how J is pronounced like an H in Spanish and sort of like a Y in German. No matter how many Irish names I look at, I still don't have any clue what the letters are doing. At time it seems like they just randomly insert Hs that don't do anything.
The names also seem at times to be a lot longer than they need to be. Why does it take eleven letters to get a two syllable name?
