[Opinions] Re: Xenia and Caoimhe
in reply to a message by Millie
I've only ever heard Xenia pronounced either "ksen-ya" or "zen-ya." I think Zena / Zeena / Zina or Xena would be better for the "zee-na" pronunciation.
As for Caoimhe, I think it would be a bit unusual on a child of non-Irish descent, but some Irish names like Niamh have become reasonably popular in the UK in the last few years, so it could work :) I definitely prefer the Caoimhe spelling to Keeva.
