[Opinions] Aaleighon
I have just seen this name in some birth announcements. To me, it looks like 'Alien'. I am unsure of the gender, but all the same, it's awful!

How are you even supposed to pronounce that? *sad*

Psh, if you think THAT looks like alien...There have been occasions where a substitute teacher takes the typical pause at my name (there's always a pause) and has made the executive decision that my parents named me Alien. It's happened. Ugh. But I agree, Aaleighon is awful. It does have all the kre8tyvve qualities leading me to believe that it could indeed be pronounced Alied. But it's more likely that it's Uh-LEE-on. Whatever, still bad.

Wait a minute...And your name is Aileen? That's not even an uncommon name! I suppose I've more commonly seen it spelled Eileen or maybe Ilene, but still. That really surprises me.Some teachers don't even really look at names anyway. I've gotten Sharon a lot. Because nn looks like r apparently. :\

I'm hoping the pronounciation isn't the same as Alien!

Oh no!My first thought was Alien! I wonder how they pronounce it, a-LEE-on, ah-LEE-on, a-LAY-on, ah-LAY-on. It's probably bad either way.
