Éabha
Éabha is from the Old Irish name Eva, who was the wife of an early invader of Ireland in Irish legend. Éabha has become quite popular in Ireland in recent years. It is pronounced like Ay-va or Eh-va, usually. Irrelevant opinion of mine: I like this name a lot, and would love to see it used outside of Ireland as well, but many people, particularly here in the U.S. would have no idea how to pronounce it and would probably mostly come out with something like "Ebba." |
Comments on "Éabha"
Éabha is my daughters name. It is pronnounced Ay-va rather than Eh-va because of the fada on the E which lengthens the E. It is a beautiful name. The name is also used in Irish language bibles as the translation of Eve.
