With that spelling I think Mad-eh-lane.
This is the [name_m]French[/name_m] spelling, and the correct [name_m]French[/name_m] pronunciation is mad-uh-len.
I say Mad-uh-line and [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] for me is mad-uh-len
[name_f]Madeleine[/name_f] I assume [name_f]MadeLINE[/name_f] but I would prefer to say it as MadeLENN.
I pronounce this and [name_f]Madelyn[/name_f] (mad-uh-lin) the same, but I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] this spelling. I guess it’s like the -len pronounciation.
