I refuse to refer to people with the name "Sean" as if it is pronnounced "Shawn".. there is no logical explanation for such a pronunciation... No you are pronounced "seen" and you get no say in it!

@freemo This presumes that the source language for "Seán" is English, which of course it isn't.

@knottedthreads @freemo And even if Seán was English, since when has English pronunciation had anything to do with logic? His surname could be Featherstonehaugh for example
