Hi irishgirl. Welcome to the site. :) According to this link Muireann is pronounced "mur + in" and says that it

Means "sea white, sea fair." The very appropriate name of the 6th century mermaid caught by a fisherman in Lough Neagh. He brought her to St. Comghall who baptized her which transformed her into a woman.

Hope that helps. ;)
