How do you pronounce Aveline?

Girl Names
1

[name]Ava[/name]-line

or

[name]Ava[/name]-leen

(I am saying it with a soft “a” for both)

I like this name, but I could see it either way and I’m not sure if that would make it confusing for everyone else! My true dilemna is that unfortunately I’ve been in love with the name [name]Ava[/name] for as long as I can remember and of course it is so extremely popular, which is against everything I usually look for in a name. Sigh.

2

I pronounce it AYE-vuh-leen (hard A for the first syllable)

3

I pronounce it AYE-vuh-leen (hard A for the first syllable)

Pronouncing it with a soft A for the first syllable would be hard to convince people who would constantly pronounce it like [name]Ava[/name].

4

Av-uh-LEEN for me.

5

My old science teacher has a one year old baby name Avaline and they pronounce it [name]Ava[/name]-leen, so that’s how I pronounce it.

6

av-uh-line (like a straight line)

7

[name]Ava[/name]-Leen is how I pronounce it. I can’t seem to see that name and pronounce it au-va-leen or au-va-line.

8

Oh…I guess I was pronouncing it wrong…lol!

9

ah-vuh-leen is how I pronounce it.

10

I say it as ah-veh-leen. :slight_smile:

11

A-vuh-line with a soft ‘a’
Like [name]Avalon[/name] with ‘line’ instead of ‘lon’

12

Ditto. It’s my daughters middle name.

13

I pronounce it [name]Ava[/name]-leen

14

A-vuh-leen is how I pronounce it.

15

I want it to be pronounced like another poster said: like [name]Avalon[/name], but with “line” on the end, because I like that the best. But, I don’t know how it is supposed to be pronounced. [name]Ah[/name]-vuh-leen is nice too.

16

I say Av-uh-leen, but I don’t know any in real life so I’m not really sure.

17

I say Av-uh-leen too.

18

Since this is an old [name]Norman[/name] French name, I pronounce [name]Aveline[/name] as “ah-vuh-LEEN”. French names ending in “line” should be pronounced as “leen”. Unlike English speakers, French speakers even pronounce [name]Caroline[/name] with a “leen”.

19

For me it’s [name]Ava[/name]-leen. :slight_smile:

20

I pronounce it av-uh-leen (short ‘a’ like ‘cat’, ‘bat’, ‘sat’, etc.). According to behindthename.com, this is the correct pronunciation. [name]Love[/name] this name, but it would be really hard to get people NOT to pronounce it as [name]Ava[/name]-leen/line/lyn or use [name]Ava[/name] as a nickname which would drive me crazy because I can’t stand the name [name]Ava[/name].
