[Opinions] Three different ways?

I've heard Emmeline / Emmaline pronounced two different ways: em-uh-leen (which I prefer) and em-uh-lien. What would be the third way?

I hope it's not em-uh-lin (like Emalyn, or something). That just sounds... weak. Like the entire name can dissolve in your mouth.

Please rate my personal name lists:

You're correct. My neighbour has a granddaughter named Emmeline and they pronounce it like em-uh-lin. I prefer the -leen pronunciation too.
