Would love to know how some of the less popular ones are pronounced. I tried to look up but not all are available. Am familiar with Saorise and [name_f]Roisin[/name_f], the more common ones, but others seem just as interesting. In case anyone would be willing to share!
[name_f]Saoirse[/name_f] is my very favorite! 
I’m also a fan of both [name_f]Oonagh[/name_f] and [name_f]Orlaith[/name_f].
Fiadh/Fiadhnait is my fave ! I also really like Sionnach
