Depends on the spelling & regional accent I suppose but

Adalynn -Add A Lynn.
Adaline- Add A Line, although weirdly I hear it in my head with an Australian accent.
Adelynn-Adel Lynn
Adeline - Adel line / Addiline if said quickly.

I don't like any of them, but Adeline is the best spelling. I suspect people would say Adduh-lyn, Adduh-leen or Adduh-lyne

Adalynn and Adelynn - would pronounce them both ad-uh-lin, with the middle sound a schwa sound. Adeline and Adaline - would pronounce them both Ad-uh-line. I like Adeline best.

Adeline is the usual spelling and it's pronounced Ad-uh-line - line as in 'walk in a line', the same as Caroline.

If you want lin at the end you could just go for Ad-uh-lin/n?

It's confusing because eg Emmeline is pronounced Leen at the end.. the English language is a bugger.

Love Adeline. If I could, I would have wished for an Adeline Isabella.
