[Opinions] Re: Names of Scottish Islands...WDYT?
in reply to a message by JMO
I live in Scotland, and have only heard Iona and Islay (normally spelt Isla -- they are pronounced the same). Also Skye; those three are very popular just now. Ailsa is more popular on older women. I'd use any of those four, but most of those you listed don't work as names in my eyes.
Kerrera would be pretty in theory, but I don't know what would happen to it in an accent that doesn't roll its R's. Rather than Taransay, I'd just use Taran -- the name of the saint after whom the island was named.
