Oh man!
Can a local please spell out the pronounciation for me?
Congrats to her, it took me a while to remember where I knew B*witched from, but I remember when they had a song out over here!

What a great day to be born on and what great numbers for the baby! The 7th is my son’s birthday and he turned 8!

Many happy, happy wishes for them all even though I’m not familiar with her music.

I love the name too!

I just looked up the pron.:
Ceol (pron. kyol) (music)
another meaning is “ship”

I think it’s pro. ‘Kyle”
I’m not positive though bc Im American and I just found out from an Irish friend I’ve been pro. Celtic wrong it’s not with an “S”

and I’m assuming its variation is Caol which is what the name Kyle is derived from and it’s Gaelic for ‘narrow’ and used in Scotland

also depending on the way it’s used it’s meaning changes I guess feminine/masculine one means music another ship
I hope that’s helpful!

I believe it’s pronounced like “keel” but more of a pause so it’s two syllables. Like Key – ol.

Oh, it also means music.

I’m Irish, it’s pronounced Keole, sort of like key-hole but if you ran it all together and left out the ‘h’ in hole. It’s hard to explain, that’s the best I can think of sorry! It means music. I’ve never heard it refer to boats and it’s definitely not derived from Kyle. It’s a word not normally associated with names.

It’s the Irish word for music alright, and is pronouced in two syllables, which are run together, ceol (key ohl)

- danielle on July 10th, 2007

Ceol is Irish for “music” and it’s pronounced “keh-yole” withe the emphasis on the “-ole”

A beautiful name!

Another common Irish name is “Saoirse” meaning “freedom”, and it’s pronounced “See-ar-sha”
