Story of a Name: In Irish legend, Aoife was the second wife of King Lir, and was so jealous of his love for the four children of his first marriage (to her sister) that she lured them to a lakeside and turned them into swans. She placed a curse on them that forced them to spend 300 years at that lake followed by 300 years on a river opening to a stormy sea and 300 years at a frozen lake in the North.

After 900 years, returned to human form, they realised with great sadness that all their beloved father and all their family were long dead. Except Aoife that is - as punishment for her evil deed, she had been turned into a crow, doomed to roam the world in that form eternally. That’s very Irish indeed.
