[Opinions] Re: Elin
in reply to a message by CN
I think the pronunciation of the name depends on where you live. I prn Elin more like EE-lin and that is the only way I've heard it pronounced. eh-LIN sounds more like Eline imo.

Okay this name could lead to more pronunciation issues than I thought haha. But I'm glad to know that it is often pronounced EE-lin.

Really?I've never heard any Swedish person pronounce it that way. I think it's very strange. Did you listen to the sound file or do you base it on the way I tried to describe the sound?
In my mind EE-lin would be like Ilin (long Swedish)

Yeah, I downloaded the sound file and you don't prn it the same way I do. I've never thougt of another pronunciation to Elin since I've only heard it pronounced EE-lin. Weird!
