HelpRe: Aveline or Genevieve?
in reply to a message by Beth
Genevieve. It sounds prettier to me than Aveline, and is more well-known. I get the feeling that a lot of people might be unsure how to pronounce Aveline.

yes, agreed... I am not sure how I would pronounce Aveline, myself. So pretty on paper, but pronunciation is tricky.

Maybe do a poll to see how people would instinctively say it? For what it's worth, I'm saying it "AV-el-een"

I'm saying it Av-uh-leen.

I think that is closest to Aveline's French / Norman roots.
