Hi All,

What are your opinions on Moira? It used to be quite popular here in Ireland years ago but not so much in recent years-pronounced Moy-ra. Thnaks

Hell, NO!

My personal feelings are somewhat clouded by manager who is a Moira.

much prefer Mairi...........or Lorna maybe which has a similar sound without the old lady vibes.

Makes me think of the horrible girl in Malory Towers.

I find it hard to imagine a baby or toddler called Moira, somehow.

What about Moya?

It's middle name after my Irish Granny. I think that says it all really.
