How do you pronounce it?

I love the way it looks, but wondering if people would pronounce it the same way I would.

Like Avaline Boswell 😂

"Av" to rhyme with "have"

"a" as a lower case "a" rather than upper case "ay"

"line" as per "Caroline"

It's a nice name, sounds pretty.
Anyone as old as me will know it as the daughter of the Boswell family in the sitcom Bread. I've never heard the name anywhere else so it can't be very common. I really like it though!

I really like it but I can't unhear that bloody awful woman from Bread shouting it. Not as that would be a worry for you or your DD as the show is years old, it's just put me off the name.

Av-uh-leen or Av-leen, depending on which part of France you're from.

Like Adaline but with a 'v' so ah-vuh-line?
