What do you think of Ashlynn as a name?

[AnotherOddSock]

Any thoughts or opinions? I don't know anyone with this name.

I have heard of it. Think it is Irish and spelt differently.
It's lovely.

The Irish name is Aisling and is really lovely.

That's Aisling, pronounced Ash-leen. I didn't want to give her an Irish name with an Irish spelling

It's a pleasant name that nobody will have trouble pronouncing.

I have a friend who's daughter is called Ashlynn, spelled how you spell it. I think it's lovely.

It keen. Prefer Ashley to the 'Lynne' bit.

...with Alohamora here, I think people will imagine you meant Aisling, but wanted to go with a novelty spelling/pronunciation.

I love Aisling/Ashlynn but prefer the Irish spelling. Just because it was one of the first characters I loved: Aisling from Maeve Binchy's "Light a Penny Candle"

It's lovely but probably will be seen as Irish. There are two Irish versions Aisling - pronounced Ashleen and Aislinn - pronounced Ashlynn

Ashlynn sounds like a made up name. Or a name chosen by someone who didn't like the spelling of Aisling. So not, not for me personally.

It looks/sounds very American

Aisling isn't pronounced the same as Ashlynn.

Ashlynn sounds like a failed country singer turned truck stop hooker.

Aisling isn't pronounced ash-leen, it's ash-ling so would be much more like ash-lynne in sound. There would be confusion but if that doesn't bother you it's a nice name. Aisling prettier I think and is means dream which is lovely.

The only Ashlyn I know is Australian, so I had no idea it was connected to Aisling.

It's Aislinn, close friends name. Beautiful and unusual. Often misspelled.... It's an Irish name. Is your spelling American? I think they would be pronounced the same way?

Sounds like an American cheerleader from the Deep South to me.

Sounds American to me. Saw an Our Generation doll in the toy shop yesterday called Ashlynn.

I prefer Ashleigh.

I like Ashlynn. Although it sounds a little American to me, i find it sweet. If I have to imagine a girl named Ashley, I imagine a sweet, innocent cutie pie.

Ashlynn* sry my DD I testing my nerves right now and i didnt even see what i was typing

I don't like it.

There are two Irish versions Aisling - pronounced Ashleen and Aislinn - pronounced Ashlynn

Aisling and Aislinn are both pronounced ash-ling.

Aisling pronounced Ashling is nice.

Ashlynn is a bit eighties trailer trash.

As has already been posted, Ashlynn is no relation to Aisling or Aislinn, both are pronounced as ash-ling (the g at the end is quite soft). You can hear it pronounced here.

Ashlin is an old English surname, but the first name Ashlyn(n) is modern English usage, and probably a smush of Ashley + Lyn(n).

I have an Ash- name myself (not Ashley), so I'm generally a fan of Ash- names. However, and I'm not sure why, but I've never warmed to Ashlynn.

I don't hate it, and there are worse names out there, but I prefer Ashley and my own name.

Agree sadly with posters who said it sounds like failed pageant cheerleader type.
