So I’ve realised there may be more ways to pronounce [name_f]Albertine[/name_f] than the version I use in my head! [name_m]How[/name_m] would you instinctively pronounce [name_f]Albertine[/name_f]? Also what do you think of the name, is it usable?
[name_m]Al[/name_m]-bur-teen would be my guess (like [name_m]Albert[/name_m] with -teen on the end)
[name_f]Albertine[/name_f] is cute! [name_m]Albie[/name_m], [name_u]Bertie[/name_u], [name_f]Alba[/name_f], [name_f]Teenie[/name_f], [name_u]Allie[/name_u],[name_u]Bernie[/name_u] would all be cute nn
I think that, unlike [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] and [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], [name_f]Albertine[/name_f] seems distinctively [name_m]French[/name_m]. I doubt anyone would use the -ine pronunciation over the -een pronunciation. I say al-ber-TEEN. It’s really cute!
I would pronounce it with an -een ending. I actually think it’s more wearable than some names I’ve been seeing around, though my first thought was aubergine…
