I need a Scot

Taxonomy upgrade extras:
Is there anyone around that can speak Scottish Gaelic, (or maybe they're Lowland Scottish, idk.)? I've been trying to figure out how to pronounce "Brá¹naidh" and "Peallaidh" all night.
My best guess is: brun(as from my mostly forgotten German classes)-aidhhhhh (where the final aspirate is drawn out far enough to explain why they become long e or a in English transcriptions), and the second word is: pe:l-l; followed by the same as above. Am I close?
Bonus points for a pronunciation of "gruagach". (exactly like the letters in English, maybe?)
Which would you name your cat? Oh, yeah, someone gave me another cat yesterday; the Ghost Cat is not happy! If you can tell me the new cat's colour I'll know you're Scottish -- or, maybe, Irish -- or a folklorist. Thanks for your indulgence. I know this isn't what BCTS is for, but I know of no where else where I could hope for a better response to such a question.
