Patricius

[mrsshears]

Does anyone know how this is pronounced? i have just seen on a celeb baby name site that it is bono's sons middle name.
My late nan was called patricia and i would love to incorperate her name into our new baby's,probably as a middle name.
I would imagine this is pronunced patrisheus? what do you think?

I would think Pat - rish - uss like Patricia (Pat- tish - er) and patrician (pat- rish - un)

In a sort of home counties Dorset/Hants type accent like mine, anyhow...

PS isn't Patrick the male version of Patricia?

Yes purple,its already been pinched by another family member though.

How about the Irish, Padraig?
