Re: Emmeline/Emmaline pronunciation
in reply to a message by Aileen
I personally prefer to pronounce Emmeline and Emmaline as EM-uh-leen. However, I think the pronunciation of EM-uh-line is just as valid. I just like the sound of the first pronunciation better.
As for Madeline, at least where I live, the most common pronunciation is MAD-uh-lin so I am used to that.
I don't think it would too much confusion, but you might get some people wanting to pronounce Emmeline like they do with Madeline so that it would come out EM-uh-linn.
