I like the name [name_f]Aveline[/name_f] but can’t decide how to pronounce it because everywhere I look gives a different pronunciation!
Av-uh-LEEN
Av-uh-[name_f]LINE[/name_f]
AV-uh-line
AV-uh-lynn
Ay-vuh-LEEN
I’ve never met anyone with the name either
I think I prefer the Av-uh-LEEN pronunciation so I’m glad that other people would pronounce it that way too
jtucker and svea - I think it’s very pretty too and it’s definitely underused
The Normans introduced this pretty name to [name_f]England[/name_f] so it’s [name_m]French[/name_m] and the correct pronunciation is “av-uh-LEEN” (never “ay” or “line”).
[name_u]Mischa[/name_u] - I’m so glad that my preferred way is the correct way! Thank you
I’ve loved the name [name_f]Ava[/name_f] forever but its popularity makes me sad so when I found [name_f]Aveline[/name_f] it seemed like the perfect alternative and I’m so happy everyone thinks it’s pretty (it’s is quite likely that if I ever have a daughter this will be either a first or middle name, though obviously this could change)
