Can you spell Aoife any other way?

[MariposaTam]

I too had absolutely no idea how to say the name Aoife until I read the pronunciation of it in the brackets. My own name is hard for most people to say correctly and spell correctly and I've always hated it because of that, despite many people telling me that it's a beautiful name once I explain how to pronounce and spell it. I am not sure that I like any of the alternate spellings though, Eva works but I understand it sounds a bit different. Maybe Eifa?

I love the name Aoife and being Irish prefer the traditional spelling, to me changing the spelling almost takes away from the name itself- just my opinion though

I would keep the name. As a teacher I can't help but judge kids who's names are spelt phonetically! (wrong i know, but i can't help it!! They all seem to be really naughty and chavvy) x

I usually use Aiva as a close second for that Irish spelling. =)
