I like it. Ira Gershwin. Wouldn't have thought of IRA.

Oh I've always liked Ira. It's a shame everyone is saying IRA.

Sorry its old mans name, makes me think of some old cantankerous granny shouting 'Ira' from the porch.

It's Jewish isn't it? It makes me think of that old Cybill Shepherd series where her ex husband was called Ira.
Plus it does look like IRA...

Not heard of it? What are its origins/meaning?

MikeLitorisRings · 16/08/2012 22:48

I thought IRA too.

Sirzy · 16/08/2012 22:47

No.

The first thing I thought when I saw it written down was the IRA
