Fun fact
Siún is an Irish form of Joan. I know a couple of Siúns, but it's still quite an unusual name. It's just four letters, and it's pronounced Shoon.

Figures for the spelling Siún, Republic of Ireland.
The CSO only publishes names given to three or more babies in a year. “Less than 3” means zero, one or two babies, and these years appear as gaps on the graph.

From 2018, spellings with and without fadas are counted separately. Earlier figures group these spellings together, so the graph has a break at 2018.
