Which spelling do you like better for a girl's name?
Both pronounced the same, like the musician.

Neither to be honest, why?

I'm trying to decide for my forthcoming daughter.
I'm not 100% on the name anyway, but am curious to see opinions.

That's kinda what I was thinking, due to the simplicity and the sake of subbstitute teachers, except the second spelling is truer to the gaelic heritage of the name.

The first, because no one will ever ever get the pronounciation of the second. Whatever you give her she has to use forever. Be kind.

No kidding. :disgust: Those names suck nuts.

Go for something like "Timbrel Rain" for first and middle. :)

Name her Erin instead! Erin is a GREAT girl name ;)

I have dated two girls named Erin in the past.... so that name has a special meaning for me.

When you find someone willing to reproduce with you, you can name your progeny whatever you want :p

Nothing is more irritating than parents who use their kids' names as some sort of vanity plate. For their sake, keep it normal.
