Proinsias - how to pronounce it?

[little_billie]

I came across the name [name_m]Proinsias[/name_m] when I was looking for variations of the [name_m]German[/name_m] name [name_m]Franz[/name_m] ([name_u]Francis[/name_u]).
[name_m]Proinsias[/name_m] is Irish and I have no clue how to pronounce Irish names, especially this one.

[name_m]How[/name_m] would you pronounce that name? Does anybody know the name?

There is audio of the name here, pronunciation seems to vary. I love Irish names, but this one doesn’t do it for me.

Thanks, this helped a lot.
Now that I heard it I must say this one definitely doesn’t do it for me either
