[Opinions] Re: Oisín
lulz, aside from the fact that it's completely unpronounceable to most english speakers?I like it too, but that's only because I know someone with it as his middle name, and the combo is cool (Eoghan Oisin, but he says Eoghan Owen). It's a cool sound, but I'd never arrive at it without being coached, and I still get irked when I have to be coached through a name. I find it arrogant of the namers. I do prefer Osheen, I think.

Good point. I guess being a lifelong name nerd has desensitised me to a lot of non-English pronunciations, cause I honestly never thought of it as unpronounceable. Eoghan Oisin is a neat combo.
