Emme-'leen'. Definitely.

Oh I adore Emmeline! And I would say leen at the end Grin

I love love love the nn Emmie for a little girl. But then the full name has such a fabulous history for a grown up.

Clemen 'teen' as a name, but 'tyne' as a fruit. But I'm probably wrong.

I have one and call her Clemen 'teen' . 99% of people call her Clemen 'tyne'.

We don't use her full name often though.

Wow this seems to be the name of the minute! There have been sooooo many threads about it recently.

I would say it like Christine or Pauline. You don't say Chris-Tyne do you and they are very similar names?....

Personally, stealing my SIL's line, I'd pronounce it 'orange' but then fruit names are really not my cup of tea, sorry Grin
