Hi there!!

I have a new idea for a tattoo and I need your help. I want to know how do you say "butterfly" in Irish? It could be AMAZING.

Thanks to all of you for your attention and help.

Regards,

Freya

Hi Freya,

There are two different ways to spell 'butterfly':

feidhleacán and féileacán

If this is for a tattoo, you might want to know some fonts to use for writing it.
