For future reference, this is a decent on-line resource for Irish names: http://www.ainm.ie/

Mr Kelly: An tUasal Ó Ceallaigh

Ms Brennan: Bean Ní Bhraonáin

An gal gréine

Iníon Uí Bhraonáin....Miss Brennan.

I would've thought it was Iníon Ní Bhraonáin,because we were taught that Uí would only be used for a married woman,e.g.
Máire Bean Uí Bhraonáin.

Just a little advice OP.....never use Google Translate-it is a calamity!!

The purpose of the Ms. appendage in English is to conceal marital status, yet both of the foregoing posts disclose it. My only experience of the use of a Ms. equivalent in Irish was an encounter with a lady, whose name, let's say, would be anglicised as Mary O'Neill. She called herself Mãire Néill. No Uí, no Ní. So, I would suggest Māire Braonāin. Irish has less formality than most European languages. If she objects to disclosing her first name leave it at Braonāin. If she regards her marital status as irrelevant, she probably sees her gender as being equally irrelevant.

Mrs. Mary Brennan....Máire (Bean) Uí Bhraonáin.
Mary Brennan..........Máire Ní Bhraonáin.
Miss Mary Brennan....Máire Iníon Uí Bhraonáin.

The latter means literally Mary, the daughter of Mr. Brennan and that's why
Uí Bhraonáin is used here.

I've never seen an Irish language equivalent of that convention.

Perhaps the nice people on Gaeilge Amháin on Facebook would be able to help.

Well at post no. 8 I've recounted my only experience of it. OP has asked for a translation of Ms..

Sorry feargale, I didn't address that Ms.
I've not seen a Gaelic equivalent and what you suggest seems like one answer to it. The late writer, Nuala Ó Faoláin's reason for her not altering the male Ó Faoláin, but having a clear feminine first name may have been her answer to the English language Ms.

Yes, I've seen a lot of women who have Irish names just leave it Ó _________.
