I was talking to my girlfriend today who is expecting a little boy in May. Her husband and her are having a debate on the spelling of a name. She wants to name him Seamus but her husband is afraid that people will mispronounce it so he wants to spell it Shamus. Well to her she sees SHAMUs. What do you personally thing about the spellings? Would you know how to pronounce Seamus?

Definitely go with Seamus. The name was used in Harry Potter, and while people won't automatically think of that, it'll help with people being familiar with it. Plus, I think of it like I think of Sean, but with a different ending. I don't think it's really that hard.

I love the name. Shamus looks ridiculous.
