"Blue Eyes" in Gaelic?

[GrahamCan]

We've got a 5 week old cat and I've been trying to think of a name for it.

If "blue eyes" in Scottish Gaelic sounds at all nice, I'd like to go with that.

Thanks in advance for the help.

suilean gorm.

The gorm is the blue part as in the montains Cairngorm or Blue Mountains.


pronunication - shoo - ay - lin - gorm.

my Grandfather passed away many years agos.

But he used to to say "I love you" in Gaelic.

I do not believe I am saying/pronouncing it right.

HELP.

Thanks.

I think "Suilean Liath" is more natural Gaelic "Grey Eyes" literally.

Gorm-shùil is found in many songs for blue-eyes.

....nan gorm-shùil meallach (....of the enchanting, blue eyes)

why not call your cat that. Pronounced "Gurrum-hool"
