Talk:Colm Tóibín

message: Any help pronouncing his name would be most welcome.  Sandover 05:56, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: "Colm" is pronounced in two ways in Ireland; the standard way when addressing an English language Colm; then you have people like Tóibín whose first name is the Irish language version, spelled the same but pronounced differently, so his name spelled phonetically is: kullim toe-been. There is a hint of an "h" sound in the last name, if you can manage it: kullim t(h)oe-been, but if you can only manage toe-been, most Irish people won't notice any difference, nor care. If his name was English, he would be called Colm Tobin ("kollim toe-bin"). — O'Dea (talk) 05:47, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

message: I was listening to (the terribly anglocentric) Marian Finucane in late 2008 as she interviewed Jim Bolger. Bolger was going on about his childhood and I'm almost certain he said that Nioclás Tóibín taught him in Wexford and that Nioclás was Colm's father. Interview here: http://www.rte.ie/podcasts/2008/pc/pod-v-111008-37m9s-marian.mp3. I surmise that this Nioclás is not the sean nós singer of the same name? 86.44.47.236 (talk) 18:10, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
