that's the most "correct" anglicization. I like the way
Ossian
looks, too. It isn't pronounced like Oisín, though-- if you want the original Irish pronunciation, I guess I'd go with
Osheen
. Maybe Oshin and split the difference?

I agree that
Ossian
looks nicest, but
Osheen
is the pronunciation I'm going for... Do you think Oshin looks like a bad spelling of "ocean"?
