How to say "My Name Is" in Irish
When introducing yourself in Irish, you will want to tell someone what your name is. In order to that, we must first say our name, followed by “is ainm dom”. Therefore, to say “My name is Jamie”, we say “Jamie is ainm dom”. You may also hear or see the phrase “an t-ainm atá orm” instead of “is ainm dom”. This is another way to say your name, i.e. “Jamie an t-ainm atá orm”. To ask someone what their name is, you say “Cad is ainm duit?”.
Watch the video to practice your pronunciation of the phrase “Is ainm dom”. Once you feel comfortable with it, see our other videos. Next, you might like to attend a Free Workshop or join a 7-week Introductory course – bígí páirteach, a chairde!
