She was indeed a wife of Brian Boru, but not a loving wife as some might assume. Maybe at a time, but who knows. You might put 'ex-wife and enemy' in stead of 'wife'.
I found that the name is either pronounced (GUR-um-la); (GOORM-la); or (GORM-lah).

The meaning is very pretty, and very fitting of Gormlaith herself. Just I think the first syllable is extremely ugly. I can't get past the "GORM" sound.
