[Opinions] Re: Havyn
in reply to a message by Geri
The fact that you yourself don't know how you would pronounce it is a sign to me that this is a bad spelling. Not that I'm totally sure that pronunciation you're trying to get across by "Have'n." If you want to name someone Haven or Heaven, just name them that. Then people will know how to pronounce it. The purpose of the way a word is spelled is to tell you how to pronounce it. (Though I also don't really think Heaven is a reasonable pronounciation of Havyn.) Pronunciation aside, I don't ever really like alternate spellings to word names. I think they universally look silly and uneducated.-----https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/120652
