Faith is Creideamh. I'd pronounce it KREDGE-uh

As for "Jessie Lea," I'd have to say it as "Jessie Lea!"

maybe Dhessi for Jessi (since there are no J's in Irish) :lach:

Well, there ARE "j's" in Irish, just not in native words.

Jessica was made up by Shakespeare for the daughter of Shylock in The Merchant of Venice. It was probably based on a Hebrew name Ischah.

Anyone with An Biobla Naofa want to check Genesis 11:29?

Yiskah -- Ioscá?

Lea looks like Leah, the second wife of Jacob : Léá?
