Saoirse Ronan pronouncing difficult names has the internet loling

Saoirse Ronan has had to deal with quite a few people mispronouncing her name over the years.

To be fair, it's a pretty Irish name that not many people living Stateside would have heard before. 

For that reason, POPSUGAR had the Irish actress in to ask her to pronounce some pretty difficult celebrity names

The Lady Bird actress did reasonably well, getting a satisfactory seven out of 13 correct.

With names in the line up like Zosia Mamet, Tea Leoni and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, we think she did pretty well. 

However, not every corner of the internet was suitable impressed. 

Some fellow Emerald Isle residents thought that perhaps Saoirse was playing up her Irish-ness a tad too much. 

We'll let you make up your mind on that one, check out the video below:
