[Opinions] Re: Suibhne
in reply to a message by BrilliantBlue
1. How do you pronounce it? Actually, it's pronounced more like siv-nya or siv-nyuh. There's a quick "y" sound.
2. If you know, how common/weird/archaic is it in Ireland/Scotland/etc.? I live in Ireland, and I've never heard of anyone called Suibhne. It sounds archaic. However, I do know people whose surname is McSweeney, which would be Mac Suibhne in Irish.
3. Do you like the name? No, I don't really like it. And I don't know why.
4. What do you think of Daniel Suibhne? Nice combo. Seems to go well with Daniel.
5. Does it conjure up any images for you? Johnny Depp playing Sweeney Todd.
