Thread Name: Eithne Ni Uallachain
Subject: RE: Eithne Ni Uallachain
Depends where she's from; mostly Eithne is pronounced ETHnuh, but some westerners pronounce it AYannuh (AY to rhyme with 'hay'). Ní Úallacháin is NEE OOLuhhawn, more or less.
Best thing for exact pronunciation would be to zip down through YouTube to find an Irish person introducing the singer. No hardship!
