How would you pronounce this name?
Replies
OSS-ee-in (first syllable rhymes with Ross)
Reminds me a bit of Océane
And in addition to this I would probably pronounce it very similarly.

Without looking it up, its a variant of Oisín? Yes?
O-Sheen.
O-Sheen.
uhSHEEN. And you?
Well, in my language, it's pronounced ohs-see-Ahn. First time I saw that name in a poem "I have not heard the tales of Ossian" ages ago.
But I believe you want to know how English-speakers pronounce this name...

yes,you are correct. I'd like to know the English pronunciation. the way it is pronounced in your language sounds nice
I'm almost certainly mispronouncing it, but... OS-ee-ən?
OSS-see-ehn (kind of).
aw-sheen is Oisín.
aw-sheen is Oisín.
My first guess was AU-see-ən but I knew that was wrong. The true pronunciation is much better in my opinion.
Ahhh okay...
It seems to be a spelling variant of Oisín so it should be aw-sheen (see Oisín). But it sure doesn't look like it! I would avoid this spelling, I think Ossian will become OSS-see-ehn or OSH-ehn but never aw-sheen whereas with Oisín people are more likely to just ask how it is pronounced.

It’s pronounced oh-SHEEN, approximately.
