Mar is Ann would be a play on words ...could mean 'as it's here' or 'because it's here' but also 'because it's Ann' ,i.e. your name. "Mar is Ann(ie).
Ok maybe not the direction you were going 🙈 but you got me thinking 🤯😛 Not sure what you want to convey ....
Also, "Mar is An(n) na Mar" or "mar is an_na_mar" or something like that would round it out and link it to your existing presence and greatness online xxx
Nothing wrong with the o.g. name either as this place is a quintessentially you and whatever you do is what we're here for?!
Thank you Fernando! I agree, I am leaning toward the second but it kinda reminds me of Morbegs. Maybe I should embrace that. Marbegs?? Thanks for the lovely poem, great choice for the eve of spring. I hadn't heard of him (not surprising), I like what I'm discovering!
"Mar is eol duit" ...
"Mar is gnáth"
Mar is ______

I'd encourage you to play around with that format if you're leaning into the Gaeilge

Alice Oswalds Woods etc for poetry. I keeping getting copies then gifting them on.
Lovely for you to be here.
Thanks Roisin! I will see if I can order from the library, or drop some heavy birthday hints ;) Lovely to be here thank you!

The poem 'The Way It Is' by William Stafford holds a very dear place in my heart - I highly recommend.

Ooof, I can see why! Those are definitely guiding words to keep tucked up in your pocket, I love it thank you!
