可惜后来公布答案我也没听清楚……：（
Isn't it Sterling pound? I used it when I visited Belfast 2 years ago.
The old currency in Republic of Ireland should be the Irish punt, but it was replaced by Euro in 2002.

Have no clue at all.
说说吧，如果你知道。

I didn't pay attention to the answer

小於學甚麼的,怎麼一直在別名上轉阿? 
Xiaoyu 真是勤学好问。 Do you like the program "who want to be a millinaire"
I guess you may have got the question wrong. Both of my English and Irish friends don't know there is any popular nickname for Northern Ireland. Though, indeed there's nickname "Eire" for Republic of Ireland.

thank roxy. You are very warm-hearted:)
I just feel a little curious and since I came to UK
I'd better know it more
You may be right. I perhaps misunderstood the question:)

Xiaoyu, I think you probably did not get the question right at the first place. I asked Lovely Taoyan and another English student in my office, they both do not know.
However, one of them searched Google, and got Northern Isles. Does this sound familiar to you?

o, in fact, it was from a quzi of the Jazz dinner last weekend.
It's 'white paper & black ink' on the sheet, hehe
Anyway, it doesn't matter since my brother-in-school who graduagted from Northern Ireland don't know it, hehe.

There isn't a nickname for 'Northern Ireland'.
However Northern Ireland is often referred to as Ulster, which itself is an ancient province of Ireland, geographically located in the northeastern part of the island. Due to "historic" reasons, the Ulster Province has been divided between UK and Ireland, and now only three counties out of nine - Cavan, Donegal, and Monaghan - are part of the Irish Republic.
p.s.
Have you ever heard of Ulster Unionists Party (UUP) or Ulster Bank or University of Ulster?
cherubim到底是学什么专业的，连音箱如何放置都在行，佩服！
北爱尔兰是因为以前读 A-level 地理时老师讲过些，还不算全忘；音箱如何放置则是前些年来偶们也用5.1啊，呵呵，摆音箱和房间的大小形状，房间里的家具的摆设，人坐的位置等都很有关系的啊，最好是用数码的 SPL (sound pressure level) meter 计量一下每一个喇叭到你坐的位置（和高度）的音强音向等值。当然音箱设备要是本身太烂，那声音总不会太好的。
