I recently came across the name and I love it. For those unfamiliar with it it's pronounced ee-fa. I couldn't use it this area it would never be pronounced correctly (although it sounds great with my Irish surname. I am thinking of spelling it Efa, but I'm worried that it would be confused with Eva. Plus - despite both my husband and myself having Irish in is an Irish name we're not really connected with the culture. Still , I really love it.
