[Opinions] Re: Emmelyn
I think that Emmeline looks really nice, though I'd never use it. I pronunce the name Emma-Line, which is weird because I'm lazy with a lot of -line names. Caroline, for example, sounds like Carolyn pretty much every time I say it--I have to catch myself in the middle of the name and force myself to say Carol-Line.Emmelyn looks ugly to me, I'm afraid. Emmalyn looks a little better--the second E looks sleepy-eyed and lazy to me. I don't like it too much, though. I'd either go with Emmelin / Emmalin or use Emmeline and just correct people. Array
