Re: Please Help Domhnall?
You said thisCiara is pronounced either KEER-ah or KEE-ah-rah, depending on geography and who you ask. Both pronunciations are correct, though I personally prefer the former.
what do u mean depending on geography?I am new at this sorta thng and I have been searching a lot of databases. Your the first person who has given me any real answers. That I thank you for.I really like the KEE-ah-rah pronunciation but I would really like to know where it comes from and what it means.If you could help that would be great.Kelly

Geography = where you are locatedBy that, I mean one person in Ireland may pronounce Ciara as KEER-ah, while another Irish person living in a different part of Ireland may pronounce it KEE-ah-rah. The pronunciations are different solely because the two Irish people live in different geographical areas.No, I don't know which places say what. Sorry.And you're welcome. :-)Miranda
