9 of the hardest things about being called 'Emer'

The struggle is real.

1. “Which way do you spell it”

“THE RIGHT WAY! MY WAY!”*

(*This response is appropriate for either ‘Emers’ or ‘Eimears’)

2. And then just ignore you anyway

3. Even though there are loads and loads of us

4. But nobody to fly the flag.

We need our ‘Saoirse’ moment.

5. Going abroad can be tricky

6. The sound seems to trip people up

Them: “EE-mur? Your name is… EE-mur”

Me: “Please sir, try to hide your disbelief”

7. Because Emers couldn’t be more Irish

8. You develop ways of explaining yourself

It’s like ‘emergency’, but without the ‘gency’.
Rhymes with ‘steamer’

9. God bless the lemurs, tbh

Giving us a rhyming scheme we can believe in.
