hello, I play in a Scottish/Irish Inspired punk band and was looking for a good band name in gaelic... I technically found a name but i don't know how to pronounce it or if it's correct... the name i found was "dead president" wich i read was "marb uachtarán" is this correct? if yes, how do i pronounce it?

P.s. sorry if i have bad english, I'm from norway

It's

Uachtarán Marbh

And, using English lettering it's pronounced:

OOK-ther-awn MORR-iv
