Inuit group?

[edit]

The page on Saturn's natural satellites lists Bebhionn as part of the Inuit group. However, according to Sheppard's website, the disambiguation page linking to an Irish goddess, and also the fact that looking at the list of new names, I was thinking it didn't sound like an Inuit name, perhaps there's a mistake somewhere? :) --Patteroast 15:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The initial orbital solution indicated that the satellite belongs to the Inuit group, but later observations have apparently changed that.--JyriL talk 15:36, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly Gaelic. Not sure of the pronunciation in English, but my best guess is 'bev.een. (I think IPA: [bʲɛvʲiːn̪ˠ] in Irish.) If that looks good to people, should we add it? Or does s.o. have a source with the pronunciation? kwami 16:40, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
