I understand how you must feel. Zinaval *is* my real name.

I just answer to "Fred" everywhere else but here.  I got tired of explaining how an angel appeared to my mother and said: "You shall name him Zinaval."  Everyone kept asking me what else he said, and I got tired of telling them he didn't say anything else, he just left.  The story ends there, and that seems to have been the Almighty's whole plan for me.    

I just think you're just having a lot of fun here, Ciara.  I won't check to see if it's a previous Celtic name, only to say that there are two problems with that citation, IMHO (unverified).  First, the Celts appear to have retired it.  Second, no Keltic worth his or her glottal stops would have pronounced "Ciara" with a soft "C".

For your claim that this is your real name, I'm ashamed of you!!  You're just fibbing, but it's payday, and so you have an open invitation to pull my chain any time.  

       

only pronounced with a hard K at the beginning and a long I following,like "K eye are a"

Hugs,
Ciara
