omg I know the feeling. had someone in college named this and I pronounced it the same way until she corrected me and I was so sorry 😭 an apology to Siobhans everywhere!

Yeah, and apparently it’s the Irish equivalent of fucking “Joan” or similar. JFC.

came here to say literally THIS name haha, crazy

Same here. One of my favorite bit-part actors is Siobhan Fallon, who played the wife of “Egger” in Men in Black. She absolutely stole the few scenes she was in. I didn’t know I was mispronouncing her name for years.

For me it’s, Saoirse

I have to look it up every time I see it.

I used to have a work friend named Siobhan and when I’d come home I’d mention her to my partner. Sometimes I would text him about her. He fully thought these were two different people for like a year.
