Now I don't feel so alone in the way I pronounce Eithne ("ET-nah"). I always felt I was swimming against the stream. Now I'll suggest it more. :-)

Yes. It's actually the other way. The Enya prn is the minority. I knew an Eithne from Donegal who said it Ethna so I don't know how common the Enya way is in Donegal even.

Enya, spelled this way, is rising in popularity in Ireland by the way.
