Eireann is the correct spelling, Eire was created as a word for the free state and not used by Irish people, neither is the word gaelic in relation to our language. Ireland has also been called the Island of Saints and Scholars. The emerald isle is like nails on a blackboard for us. Saints and Scholars gives an example of our heritage.

"Eire" - the preferred word to Ireland, which is 'English'.
"Erin" - poetically.
"The Emerald Isle" - more for tourist purposes.
If you're looking for the 'ancient' name in Latin - "Hibernia".
(Scotland was "Caledonia", England was "Britannia", by the way.)
