How would you pronounce this?

[BeingATwatItsABingThing]

Aoife

I love it. When I was expecting DD, it was one of my two favourite names but we didn't go for it because I was worried DD would have a life of "How do you pronounce/spell that?"

"Eee-fa"

Ava.

Ee-fa

Ee-fa

Ee-fa.

To rhyme with wafer, but I'm probably wrong.

Ee-fa but only because I've learnt that from here.

Ee-fah. It's one of the more obvious Irish names I think.

And now I know

Did your mother have something against consonants?

Ee-fuh but I'm Irish background so know it on sight. I ADORE this name!

Yeah, Eefah!

How many would honestly know how to spell it without checking?

I can pronounce it, but I'm not sure I could spell it consistently. And in a busy environment or if a small child was saying it, I might just assume they were saying Eva.

I'd say it Eefa and spell it Aoife (without checking your OP ). Such a lovely name.

Ee-fa

I do love it.

I am unwilling to compromise on the spelling as well. I would rather keep the Irish spelling. DP is Irish so it wouldn't be weird.

I've seen it written and always thought it was ee-fee!

My dh thought it was wah-fay first time he saw it.

ee-fah
i would have to check spelling as dyslexic but would know it was aoife or similar rather than eeffa or something ridiculous!

I've heard AyOiffEe before.

Ee-fa!

I'm glad to see the majority would say it correctly.

I honestly know how to spelt it without checking, although I would always double check because you never now if someone has tried to anglicise an Irish name!

Ay-off-ah I'm afraid
