Subject: Neve?
Author: Ciarda Rayne   (Authenticated as Ciarda)

I'm wondering about the true origin, meaning & pronunciation of the name Neve.

Here are two names that it is supposedly derived from:
Niamh - (Irish) "Bright, Radiant”
Neva - (Italian/Spanish) “Snow”

And here are the various ways that I've heard it pronounced:
NEEV
NAY-vah
NEV-vah
NEV

Which of these is correct, or are they all correct?
