[Opinions] Ditto (mostly)

I grew up in NJ, moved to MA and say these about the same as you do! The only difference, the Mad- names:
Madeline is mad-eh-line
Madelyn is mad-eh-lynn
Madeleine is mad-eh-len
and the fact that Erin & Aaron are pronounced the same in NH completely baffles me! They're EH-rin (Erin) and AH-ron (Aaron) to me.
And not only are Ariel & Arielle pronounced differently, Ariel's all make, Arielle, female (Thanks to growing up near a huge Othodox Jewish community in NJ)

I used to live in NH, in Concord, and Erin and Aaron were prnd the same there by most people, so I'm puzzled by the difference that you've seen.
