I'm thinking it's pretty, but slightly different; would really like your views on it Smile

Thank you x

I think Emmeline is pretty too. Emmelyn could sound like the Deep South if you stress the 'Lynn'

I prefer Emmeline

I would say it as 'Emme-lyn' (how it looks!)

If you don't want it said this way - go for Emmalyn Smile

Pronounced Emmy-Lyn? If so I imagine it said in an American accent in the style of Peggy-Sue or Billy-Ray

I don't like it - sorry. It sounds clunky.

Is it a variant of Emlyn for a boy or Emmeline for a girl?
