Re: Iselin
in reply to a message by Ew_Chloe
You're the second person to give that pronounciation, which is a good thing- I'd never even thought of that being a possibility. TBH that puts me off even more than the potential Iz and Izzy- I don't mind the -lyn part, but I do not like the Ice- part at all.
I do like the look of Iseline. But I'd be worried that would lead to people pronouncing it -line. Something to think about.
I think Lina is probably not intuitive enough for many Aussies. We do like to keep things simple and no-nonsense.
But it doesn't seem like anyone wants to say it with an Iz- sound so that seems like a less likely possibility. I was thinking people might be inclined to pronounce it like Isabella.
And Izzy would be better than Ice/Icey, anyway!!!
Thanks for the combo suggestions! My favourites are Iselin Kaja, Iselin Genevieve and Iselin Hanna.
