[Opinions] Re: Faolan

Aww, what a pretty puppy!
I'm pretty sure the Irish pronunciation of Faolan is Fwail - ahn; I looked it up some time ago. The Fw sound makes it sound like three syllables to me.
I'd say you're close enough!

Faelan is fail-un and means the same thing but is more anglicised.

Yes, close enough! I don't plan on changing how we pronounce it as we're not Irish, I am just curious about the actual Irish pronunciation. :P
Here's a Forvo audio link (it's really soft, so you might have to crank up the volume a bit): http://www.forvo.com/word/faol%C3%A1n/
