btw my name is Siobhan (pronunced Shavon). My children will also have fun to pronounce Gaelic names too! .

I think that's a lovely name. I've had 2 classmates over the years with that name, and while I can never remember exactly how to pronounce it til someone reminds me, I still think it's pretty.
As for the person who named their poor kid Chevon...when I saw that at first I read it as "Chevron". Like the gas station. She probably gets made fun of.
My roommate's name is Sylvia, and it reminds me of Sylvia Plath. You know, like CRA-ZY. She's crazy, too, so I guess it fits well for her.

(Apologies to anyone reading this who also has the name Sylvia!)
