Éabha Name Meaning, Origin & Pronunciation

Éabha means life, living. Irish form of Eve, from Hebrew meaning life

Éabha is the Irish form of Eve, the Biblical first woman, whose Hebrew name is usually taken to mean life or living. In Irish the name has an old and quiet history, though it was rarely used until recent decades, when interest in classic Irish forms of familiar names grew. The fada on the first letter signals the long AY sound. It is sometimes spelled Eabha without the accent, and Eva or Eve are common English equivalents. Parents often like the way it feels both timeless and distinctly Irish, with a flowing, gentle rhythm.
