OH MY GOD, what a completely lovely name.
Aisling means ‘vision’, like the dream you are. But it comes with its downsides.
1. No one is quite sure where to put the fada
Hold on, IS THERE a fada?
2. Or, spell it at all
3. Or, pronounce it
Ayesling?
4. Some people need a reminder
5. But the struggle is so real
6. OK, WE GET IT
This is how you say it, for your information.
7. Don’t even think about getting your name on anything
8. Eventually getting a coke bottle with your name on it was a BIG deal for you
Pity you couldn’t find one. You’ll just have to take Aoife instead.
9. You have genuinely let someone call you Ashley before, because it was simply easier
10. Sometimes, you aren’t so sure yourself
11. No honestly, what’s your REAL name?
12. THEN, once they finally get it, you’re accused of spelling it wrong
13. You can’t help that there are 100,000 variations
Ass-ling? Please.
