How do you pronounce them? I looked them up, but the pronounciation is not there! This has been bugging me for a while.
CIARÁN IOAN

#Ciarán #Ioan

thank you!

Both names were in the credits for "Amazing Grace" (which was awesome, btw) and I liked the look of them and wanted to know how to say them! Thank you!

It looks like the other two have got you covered on Ciaran.

Ioan is pronounced - YO-in. (not so much 'an,' it has more 'n' sound)

Ioan: YO-an
Ciaran: KEE-ah-ran or KEER-an

Ciarán = Keer-a-AWN or Keer-AWN

ETA: Ciaran with no fada(accent mark over the second 'a') would be Keer-AN. The fada elongates the vowel.
