it sounds like

fee-na fall

fe-ne geayal

shin(as in the thing below the knee cap) fean.

there might be better suggestions though. see the fada's change the sound of the word and it doesnt spell into english without making another word. i did try though! good luck.

None of them are really worth a vote though :)
