What name goes well with Aine (pronounced Awn-ya)?

Are you in Ireland / an Irish-speaking environment? If so, I rather like Aine Niamh as a combination.

If not, I'd suggest something more standard for the majority language where you are, to balance out all the people who can't spell or pronounce Aine.

Aine Noirin or Aine Roisin are great, I think. I also like the Niamh suggestion. Beauitful name.

I second Aine Niamh. I'm not a huge fan of either name, but they do sound pretty snazzy together.

Also maybe...
Aine Brighid
Aine Caoilfhionn - ooh, nice! I like this the best.
Aine Fionnuala - because it's one of my favorite names ever!
Aine Muireann
Aine Muirgen
Aine Saraid

I can do non Irish suggestions if you were looking for those too.

Thank you. Bridget is my name :)

I've been thinking about the pronunciation a lot. I just don't like spelling it Anya.... cause even then you'll get people saying ANN-Ya. I'm thinking she'll have to correct people but once that's done Aine is easy to say. I also love that it's meaning is 'radiance'. I'm thinking my love for the name is out weighing my concern for other people. Aine Niamh is very pretty. Thank you.

oooo... I like Noirin. Thank you.

I knew an Anya growing up and no one ever pronounced her name Ann-Ya (FWIW) but I think Aine is lovely as well...
