We love the name Eira but don't want her to have to correct people on how to pronounce her name her whole life... so thought a straw poll would help us decide how intuitive it is.
Thanks so much!

Air ah....assuming it's coming from a similar root to Eire one of the Gaelic names for Ireland.

Me too - Air A. Does it mean anything?

More or less A - ra - it's a pretty name, though I must confess the only one I've known was a goat born in the January snows!
