[Opinions] Since that's not how it's usually pronunced...(m)
in reply to a message by Vesta
You'll be causing poor Madelyn a great deal of unnecessary confusion. It'd be like using the spelling Amy and insisting that everyone pronunce it e-MAY.As a somewhat random note, I have a friend whose parents named her Madeline, since it could be pronunced MAD-ah-LYNE or MAD-uh-lin--they decided she could pick which pronunciation she liked better when she was older. She's decided not to pick, and so she answers to both (but is mostly called Maddie).Array
