So my middle name is Malyn pronounced Muh-Lynn. And I love the name but people always pronounce it wrong. How would you pronounce it? What are some other spelling that get the pronunciation Muh-Lynn?
[name_u]Malin[/name_u]
Malynn
???
Also my mother name was [name_f]Melinda[/name_f] so I’d love to possibly use that name w nn Malyn but is it weird for nn to be spelled differently?
The only “person” I’ve known with that name is the [name_u]Steel[/name_u] Magnolias character, who spells it M’Lynn!
It seems like a hard one to spell in a way that’s both phonetic and aesthetically pleasing. Maybe Mahlyn, or something like that?
I think as long as you yourself are comfortable with the spelling and knowing that it’s an honor for your mother, it doesn’t quite matter how you spell it!
Mullin is what I’d assume is the spelling for the muh-lynn pronunciation. But I don’t think that looks at all appealing. Maybe Mullen, [name_u]Malin[/name_u], Malinne.
Melin, Melinn, Melyn, Melynn or Malynn are probably the best, in my opinion. [name_u]Malin[/name_u] already has a very different pronounciation (MAAH-lin)
