Iris - but I would wonder about why you had chosen such an odd spelling.

MrsKranky · 19/07/2014 09:35

Iris?!?

MuttonCadet · 19/07/2014 09:35

Iris, but unusual spelling.

AWombWithoutARoof · 19/07/2014 09:36

Eye-ree-say

JustAShopGirl · 19/07/2014 09:42

eye-ris (UK) or ah-reese - common Latin American name..

FatalCabbage · 19/07/2014 09:45

Eye-reese

I would not coo over its beauty, put it that way.

Angela?

FoxSticks · 19/07/2014 09:57

Iris?

Coughle · 19/07/2014 10:05

I read it as ih-REECE (short I sound as in "in")

Coughle · 19/07/2014 10:06

But on a second look... Ear-ick-ay?

EauRouge · 19/07/2014 10:11

Eye-reece? Eye-rice? Eye-reechee?

SuburbanRhonda · 19/07/2014 10:11

Go on, OP, tell us you're considering it as a name for your DC Grin

OutragedFromLeeds · 19/07/2014 12:01

I-Reece (I as in ink)

Appletini · 19/07/2014 12:07

That's not a name.

Sorry.

MrsJoeDolan · 19/07/2014 12:11

Ih-Riss

HecatePropylaea · 19/07/2014 12:13

Eye rice

enriquetheringbearinglizard · 19/07/2014 12:17

Angela?
Grin

That's about what it deserves.

Presume it's made up to be different?
Eye-rice is what it looks like.

MultipleMama · 19/07/2014 15:53

Rice?

That's what google tries to convert it to...

ShadowFall · 19/07/2014 16:43

My first guess was Er-see.

Followed by Eye-rye-see.

HillyHolbrook · 19/07/2014 19:55

Eye Reece.

A bit like Idris pronounced the middle eastern way of Id Reece, but without the D.

Is it a bizarre spelling of Eric?

I-Ryc(silent E)

Whatever it is I would assume the parents were rat-arsed at the registration :o

MollyBdenum · 19/07/2014 20:15

I would guess at Ih-rees, but would probably ask how to pronounce it.
