Setanta or Oisín?

I've always really liked the legend of Setanta and it's a name that can be pronounced by non - Irish people too. And it's a bit less common which I like.

BUT: the fucking TV station!

With Oisín, it's cute and I don't know anyone who dislikes it.

BUT: impossible to pronounce outside Ireland? Will it be a total pain as an adult?

Opinions please! Grin

Oisín is lovely and not difficult to pronounce once you know how to say it.

I'm not a fan of Setanta at all.

Are you in Ireland??? Love Oisin, people will learn how to pronounce it, if you're abroad.
Setanta is awful, anywhere.
