my daughters name is Siobhan it is her first name, I love it.. She is as beautiful as her name..

Siobhan has got to be the greatest name I have ever heard of. And for those of you who don't know howw to pronounce it it is Shovon. Please if you have a child name them this. It is such a unique name, and the child who bears it must be as equally unique.

Siobhan is my name, and i couldnt have been blessed more with such a unique and more powerful name. Since it is such an amazing name to carry, it brings me self confidence and also a subject to talk about. Of course how to pronounce it and what it means. I always get a "wow" look after explaining it.

This is my name except my dad changed the spelling so i spell it "shivohn" but i pronounce it the same.

The name is meant to be pronounced with the above spelling as Shivawn, but there have been so many variations of the spelling that the original pronounciation has been altered.

DO NOT NAME YOU KID SIOBHAN! Its my name. I hate it, no one can say it, its so frustrating i get called the phonetic pronunciation all the time.

siobhan is the worst name ever. most people do not understand the spelling and call me " sayoban " worst name ever . dO not insault your kid by calling them it. theyll never forgive you

My name is Siobhan and although i get called Si-o-b-han it makes people look silly when you tell them what it really is also! i have never met one person who hasn't liked the name! I love it! i am the only Siobhan i no! it makes you stand out!

my daughters middle name is siobhan but spelt the phonetic way Chevaughn as 23 yrs ago when i first heard it nobody knew how to spell it ,,, both she and i love her name and the way it is spelt ...... as i have found over the yrs i have gotten into the odd argument over siobhan not actually meaning that

That is my name, but my mom spelled it a little different. I am expecting, and if it's a girl, her middle name with be Siobhan.

My name is Siobhan,my Irish Grandmother named me after a famous actress Siobhan mckenna. She claimed it is a popular name in Ireland. I was called Shawn by my family as a youngster, until it became a popular boys name. No one can pronounce it, but when I do EVERYONE says it is so beautiful. My sons tell me I don't need a last name, it's so original. Yes I also knew my alphabet at an early age so I could spell it!!!!

I Hate my name I get called Shivi Bonna and many more weerd things!

my name is siobhan and i have learned to like it. when i was younger i hated it because i had such an unusual name and i wished i was called something else but now i like it as nobody i know has the same name

I have always enjoyed my name. I don't mind that people can't say it until I tell them how. I have a unique name and it's great. I have seen how people are pronouncing it on here and thats now how mine is pronounced. The phonetic way I say it is Shu von. Thats how my mom heard it and thats how it was meant to be said, according to her. When she found the name the meaning was the irish way to say Judith (which is my mom's name) but has since changed like 4 times in the 29 years I have been around.

But its a great name however you choose to say it.

i like my name it is unique and it also fits my persona. i would never name my child siobhan but i recommend the name to friends.

is Siobhan and i like it...i like the way it goes together with her first name Ryleigh.

Well personally i don't mind my name, its unique... although i have two common middle names, Siobhán Heather Louise
I do get the occasional mishap of people trying to pronounce my name, and it is usually wrong, people assume that you pronounce it as its spelled, believe me, its anything but that!
A lot of people ask why i also put a dash over my 'a'...its because Siobhan is becoming more common now and i like to think as my name as unique. I haven't really understood why my parents called me Siobhán, as I'm Welsh, I do have some ancestors who are irish, but it was nothing to do with the origin of the name.

And personally i think your child would be happy if you named them Siobhan,, I am
Its not 'old-fashioned' I love my name, wouldn't change it for the world!

I love this name! This is my youngest daughters name except that it has a "h"...Shiobhan. I've always loved this name and when I was pregnant with what I thought would be my last child and she turned out to be a girl, well my chance finally came. It is so unique and rare and I love it!!!:)

I love my name , it gets annoying sometimes with how to pronounce it people call me si-o-ban but its really pronounced sha-von, it seems everybody loves the name and I get a lot of compliments for it. Sure it can be a pain sometimes but it's a great one
