"séainín"

[Eve]

Hi, does anyone know how to pronounce this name?

Thanks for any help :)

[gness]

Hi, Eve....I would pronounce it.....Shawneen.....Little Sean or Shaun....x

[black_cat51]

knowing irish names, it's probably pronounced "bob"

[Eve]

Thanks Gness :) Just saw it on some TV credits and was trying to work out how you would pronounce it x

[gness]

Thanks, Eve.....we often put...een on the end of words....girleen....little girl.
Seaneen....in English...Little John....Imagine Robin Hood riding through the glen calling....Shawneen!...Shawneen!...Loses something I think.....☺☺

[Eve]

Aww :) Doesn't have quite the same ring to it, does it haha!

I do like Irish accents though. Just been watching The Fall on catch-up - Irish accents a plenty in that!

Sé... as in separate, followed by 'een-een'. This site will provide audio pronunciation of Irish words, including regional variations...
