message: "... Aoife (an Irish variant of Eve)." No, it is'nt. Its an entirely Irish name that just happens to sound similar to Eve, and has thus being confused with it ever since Strongbow married Aoife Ni Murchada in 1170. So I'm going to according amend the wording.  Fergananim 18:50, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

message: :(pronunciation:  or Kee-uh-rawn, with the 'uh' barely spoken; the name is Anglicised as Kieran, pronounced Keer-an where the long 'a' of the Irish is shortened)
The above was snipped from the article.  means a stressed short e as in "bed". --Kjoonlee 11:01, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I moved it to the talk page instead of removing all mention of it.. ;) If someone knows where you can hear his name then I guess people could write proper IPA after hearing that. --Kjoonlee 18:12, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Or if you can upload a recording, that would be nice as well. --Kjoonlee 19:45, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There's a sound file linked at the bottom of the article to Hinds pronouncing his name (from an audio book, I imagine). Its said there with the Anglicised pronounciation. Nuclare 03:08, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Northern Ireland is part of Britain, not Eire. Please refrain from petty nationalism and keep to facts. Bunnyman78 (talk) 23:04, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Nothing to do with "petty nationalism" but self identification. Mo ainm~Talk 10:52, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

text: No, it is not; it is part of the island of Ireland, not the island of Britain.  Yes, It is currently politically part of the "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" with the Protestant majority being ethnically British and the large Catholic minority, part of the overwhelming majority of island's population as a whole, being ethnically Irish.  This is the backdrop to the decades long bitter struggle there, with the Irish seeking the elimination of Ulster statelet and the unification of Ireland under the Irish Republic. 173.27.82.92 (talk) 14:28, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: HAving been born in the UK, he will also be a UK citizen. Mooretwin (talk) 12:53, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The issue immediately above was about self-identification. For someone from Northern Ireland, the choice to hold an Irish passport (when they are entitled to either or both), is a pretty clear-cut statement of identity. RashersTierney (talk) 13:37, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: If the issue was about "self-identification", why did you post about passports and citizenship? The guy's obviously Irish (he's from Belfast!), but given you introduced the concept of citizenship I merely pointed out that he's also a UK citizen. Mooretwin (talk) 13:45, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Clearly Irish, not clearly British. As this reverse example in another article goes, British would be unsourced , anything else edited in way that goes against this edit would be hypocrisy.Murry1975 (talk) 15:32, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

text: Not to split hairs, he might be a UK national, but not a "British" one; Britain or Great Britain being the island that encompasses England, Scotland and Wales.  Moreover, while many Protestant Ulsterites may identify culturally as British, he, like most Irish, Catholic or not, obviously does not. 173.27.82.92 (talk) 14:36, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

message: In the 2014 television series The Flash, Savitar is the main antagonist of season 3.  However, as his voice has technically been uncredited so far, I am seeing conflicting reports on who voices him--it is either Ciarán Hinds, or Tobin Bell (the latter of whom does voice Savitar's right-hand-man Doctor Alchemy, so casting the same actor in both roles would in theory have major plot significance down the line).  Is there any confirmation on which one?  In fact, even here on Wikipedia the pages for both actors list Savitar among their credits.  Which one is it?  Or perhaps Ciarán Hinds voiced him in the final scene of "Shade", but Tobin Bell took over the reins in the following episode "Killer Frost"?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Speyeker (talk • contribs) 19:04, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

message: Hinds' characterization of Julius Caesar was spellbinding.  Seemed like he channeled Douglas MacArthur, who had his own imperious Shakespearean style, somewhat in this role (see Wm Manchester's "American Caesar").  Thus he would be a good casting choice to play the latter role as well. Excellent actor. 173.27.82.92 (talk) 14:45, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
