in reply to
a message by Bex
I wanted to mention that I don't pronounce
Lachlan
and Locklyn the same way.
Lachlan
is with a Scottish 'ch' as in loch, while Locklyn, is lock + lyn.

Yeah, it's also meant to be pronounced lah-chlan rather than the law-chlan everyone goes for....

Lachlan
and Locklyn would be prn. exactly the same in Australia, where
Lachlan
is very common.
