pronunciation

This may be a dumb question, oh well. Do you say his name as Sillian w/ an S or w/ a K, Killian?

Hi Amy, it is definately with a K as in Killian. And it's not a dumb question, your national tv movie critics can't get it right! So can somebody please email Roger Ebert with that?

He gets asked it a lot in interviews I think, and if you get the 28 Days Later DVD, the director talks about him a lot (funny that) in the commentary so you hear it quite a bit. Apparently his nickname is just Cill (Kill) too.

Cheers! ~Ultra

I believe that the traditional Irish pronunciation is "KEEL-yan" and it means war or strife. Oddly enough, I've seen the meaning as church, as well.

My little 4-year-old boy's name is Keegan, and it means "little fiery one." Yep, that sums him up, alright.
