Eireen

Eireen is a feminine name representing a variant spelling of Irene, which derives from the Greek 'Eirene' meaning 'peace.' This alternative spelling preserves the traditional pronunciation while giving the name a distinctive, slightly Celtic appearance due to the 'ei' combination. Though much less common than the standard Irene, Eireen offers a fresh take on this classical name that has been used since ancient times. The name carries the beautiful connotation of peace and harmony across cultures. While traditional Irene has experienced fluctuations in popularity throughout the 20th century, Eireen remains rare, appealing to parents seeking a name with historical depth but an uncommon spelling.

Pronounced eye-REEN.
