Help[Opinions] Re: Short spelling/pronunciation survey
in reply to a message by Lily
Shea, I guess
Claire
Madeline - MAD-ə-lin, because I know that's how people pronounce it, but I always want to say MAD-ə-lien like the storybook.
Madeleine - MAD-ə-lin
Rosaline - ROZ-ə-lin
Caroline - KAR-o-lien (kar has a long a)
Emmeline - Em-ə-lin
I don't think any are weird or awkward, but there can be some discrepancies between Madeline, Madeleine, Rosaline, and Emmeline. There are multiple correct options. Caroline, on the other hand, has no issue.
