As a Norwegian, I've always said Irish people are the salt of the earth - and these beautiful names just add to the feeling!

I’m writing a character for a project of mine. It takes place in the 1920s to 1930s. Her name is Eibhlin I wanted to know if it’s pronounced like Evelyn.

[@xiifleuriix]

@@GamesofMischiefim pretty sure it’s Ev-lin

[@hugofindenigg1269]

As an Austrian English learner I thought that English words have the most difficult spelling. But now I've just noticed that there's a language with a much more difficult spelling 😊 Thanks for the Teaching!

[@efstratiosfilis2290]

I am returning to Irish classes tomorrow & you have helped me to get back into the pronunciation. You should see how I mispronounced "Derbhfhorgail" when I first saw it!

[@mariannetuite7411]

I’m currently attempting to learn Irish so these pronunciation videos are super helpful

[@WolfeMomma]

I'm so glad! 😊💕

You are amazing at pronunciation ❤ I named my biy Sébastien could you do a video on it please and thank you

[@aoifemorrison9119]

I'm pregnant and I'm really enjoying all your videos of Irish names. If you are making any future content re names would you be able to cover Ailbhe, Blinne and Saorlaith?

[@WolfeMomma]

Thank you and congratulations! I'll add those names to do the list and will definitely cover them soon 😊

[@aoifemorrison9119]

Thanks so much, I will keep my eyes peeled. Take care@@WolfeMomma

[@TigersandBearsOhMy]

And Saoirse! That poor name is getting butchered, and having more people teaching the correct pronunciation of it would be lovely.

[@yesabenson]

Great video! The only name I knew was Maeve! I adore that name!

[@WolfeMomma]

Me too, I love the name Maeve! 💕

[@NIKOLAOSKARAISKOS-sv1xl]

As a Greek living in Ireland, I found all of those names sooo puzzling 🤭

This was fun for me to see the word, try to figure out how it could be said and then COMPLETELY GET IT WAY WRONG EVERY TIME.

Go raibh mile maith agat; I've been trying, rather unsuccessfully, to learn Irish for a number of years, and every little thing helps.

[@WolfeMomma]

Thank you! Lots of luck learning it 😊💕

How is that Kee-lin??😅😅😅 its a beautiful name by the way

[@turnoffthethunder]

I don’t know if you already did a video with this name, but I recently found the name Darthula on an Irish name list and I’ve been trying to figure out how to correctly pronounce it. 😅

[@seoul_muks]

Irish names are super beautiful and I hope I can give my future kids an Irish name (I live in Korea btw) 😍🥰 I guessed many of them correctly!!

[@anthonybrown7095]

Anglicising a native name ruins it. Ah well that's progress. For an Englishman I did well getting 50% correct. Way-hay!! A really good video as your explanations of the roots of names made it more interesting for me. Bye Big Tone in Derbyshire.

[@damianlopez7630]

Thank You Wolfe Mamma...prounounced sheera danhier.

[@WolfeMomma]

😂 it gets easier to figure out once you know the basics of Irish, like their was no letter ''v' in the alphabet so 'mh' or 'bh' makes the v sound. It's the different dialects that make it tricky 😊💕

[@damianlopez7630]

@@WolfeMomma Oh Thank You for your reply. 😂 Lol. Yes Irish Language is surely Beautiful...That is why I Joke...My name is Tratmanhoerdoer pronounced Silen!!! 😂 Lol.

The name Hallelujah is a name that has the same pronunciation in all the indiomas of the world.

[@TerroxNL79]

I scored an absolute 0 😂 Not once my pronunciation was right. Not even close !

[@persephone444]

I would call my daughters a irish name just to mess up with the brain of the teachers 😂 but joke aside love the irish names its gorgeous and since im from Québec those beautiful names are unfortunately never heard of here

[@damianlopez7630]

Eadhoan pronounced waltag.

[@damianlopez7630]

How can Laihbhaithwraithe be pronounced Mulveen??? Its as if chocolate means construction company and coffee means tractor trailer...chocolate...coffee means construction company...tractor trailer.

[@insulaarachnid]

Do Irish people care if traditional Irish names are spelt phonetically e.g. Tige rather than Tadgh or Sive rather than Sadhbh? I am Australian with Irish ancestry and would love to use an Irish baby name but am not sure about using the proper Irish spelling when no one here would know how to pronounce it.

[@WolfeMomma]

Most old Irish names have been respelt throughout the years to simplify it. I don't think anyone's too precious about the spelling, so go for it! 😊💕

[@jacksonebendick9592]

HANDS IN SLEEVES. Too freaking cute.

[@WolfeMomma]

😄😄 Thanks! 💗

[@jacksonebendick9592]

@@WolfeMomma since the sleeves always cover your hands (again cute), do your hands ever get cold? Also where is your top from?

[@kittyjane2348]

I will one day meet a girl with one of these names and ask her how it's pronounced.

[@WolfeMomma]

Come to Ireland and you'll meet a ton of them! 😄💕

[@nwoke.ezu.ike_until_death]

Why did Irish people abandon the Irish language and adopt the English language?

[@user-fh1rz1uq6c]

Ireland was completely conquered, and colonised by the English and lowland Scottish in the 17th century, after which the Irish language was effectively banned from any kind of official use, with the effect that Irish was replaced by English in most parts of Ireland by the second half of the 19th century.

[@damianlopez7630]

From what I see Irish spelling is all guesswork it's pronounced totally different from what it's written it's ridiculous it's like you see a toilet bowl and think it's a stove or you see a refrigerator and think it's a hair blower. Don't get me wrong I love Ireland in fact my godmother was Irish Lol...I have Deep Respect For Ireland. It is that non sensical spelling. It is insane. Like spelling car as bhailaithwrait...but pronounced car...or harmanheirdoerdeer pronounced silleth. It is just ridiculous. Just make Chinese style characters for letters...take the guess work out of it.

[@peadarruane6582]

The pronunciation doesn't match English pronunciations, but it is totally consistant in Irish. Its far more consistent than English is, which is all over the place

[@TigersandBearsOhMy]

There is no guess work if you learn what each set of letters means. English is far more confusing (see: Kansas and Arkansas for example, and 100s of other cases just like that).
