Some of you already know I love all things Irish. 

A beautiful ancient Celtic language that is part of heritage, culture and our national identity.

It sounds like music lilting and dancing on the tongues of our people all over the world.

An emotive lyrical song that mirrors our rugged coastline and our deep-thinking scholarly ancestors. 

It's also really bloody hard to spell.

Comedian Lee Mack has had a particularly tricky time (bit of swearing in this!)

And these Americans didn't have a great success rate either....

Is there ANY nationality who can cope with our names?

 If you have blessed your little ones with an Irish name or are shopping for a gift for a niece or nephew and cannot find their name on ANYTHING, fear not. 

Our personalised Funky Crayons come in the shape of any name and include the precious fada too.

And because you can order safely online, we won't even make you pronounce it.
