Both would sound similar, but on the last syllable there's more of an 'uhn' sound (air-RUHN) than an 'in' as in Erin (air-RIHN).

Eireann is the Irish word for Irish. It's close, but not exactly the same, since Erin is the English equivalent. The E is a bit different. It's more of an ay sound in it. I'm not sure how to explain it.
