Aoife is NOT Ava; it’s closer to ee-feh! Eabha (originally spelt Éabha) would be ay-va.
That being said, Eabha Mor Maguire would be indescribably beautiful.

I adore Saoirse <3

I need to buy a lottery ticket. I just suggested one of my favorite guilty pleasure names, Mor, a couple of threads from yours, where they are considering Octavia Rose, and Morwena (sic) and Angharad. After I’m done I look for other polls -- lo and behold! You’ve got Mor in your title. I’m not alone. :0)

Aine Mor gmv ("AWN-yuh"). But all three first names are terrific with your surname. I’d find a different middle name for Saoirse (not Saiorse) because Laoise repeats the same "sh" sound. ("LEE-shuh") Saoirse Rhiannon, Saoirse Regan?

The first comment is correct, by the way. Aoife (not Aiofe) is "EE-fuh." It’s used in Irish language classes as an equivalent of Eva, which in Europe can be pronounced either "EE-vuh" or "AY-vuh." So that may be where the confusion is coming from. But the bottom line is that Aoife is definitely "EE-fuh," never "AY-." Good luck! :0)

Saiorse Ryann

Go with Áine or Saoirse. I love Irish names an[removed]ot even Irish. Áine means "radiant" and Saoirse means "liberty" so they are both bold names, and very unique stateside.
