Uuuummmmm.....no. I completely fail to see how pronouncing Caroline with a long I in the last syllable makes one sounds like a hick. That's how I pronounce it and I am not a hick in the least. I'm from New Jersey. Not Appalachia.
It bothers me to hear it pronounced like Carolyn and I think if I had to choose between one sounding hickish and one not, I'd say Carolyn for Caroline sounds more hickish. But in reality, that wouldn't even strike me as hickish, just incorrect.
