    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.

    I would say 'Ash-lynn', and I think that's close to how its suppose to be said (I think). I tried learning Irish years ago and some of the gaelic pronounciation has stuck with me and I think this name is Gaelic, right?

    A gold star for you :) Yes it is the traditional Irish/Gaelic of Ashlynn it's from a poetic genre in the 16th and 17th centuries.  I'm just worried about pronounciation here in the states.

    I think most people in the states will get it wrong! Unless you are in a heavily irish populated area.

    It's Ash-lynn...or at least that's the best I can come up with phonetically. It has Irish/Gaelic roots. (Someone correct me if I am wrong!)

    I only know I would pronounce Ashlin because I've done much research on Irish names before! lol  But I could be wrong if my memory doesn't serve me correctly, haha.

    ETA:  Ooh, I see that I was right, yay! Stick out tongue

    ETA: I just read your responses and had to add that Aisling is a variant of Aislinn/Ashlynn, but it is not pronounced the same way. The "ing" is pronounced in Aisling, as I wrote above. 

    Aislinn is pronounced like Ashlyn.

    like hayes without the H + ling. no matter how many times i've looked them up, some irish names just don't stay in my head. i forget upon seeing it and pronounce it that way, as will most americans i think.

    also, with the popularity of -lyn and -lynn names right now [and the likelihood that she will know at least one ashlyn], i think it would just complicate things for your daughter.

    ash-lin.

    I think with the enormous popularity of Irish names right now, you'd be hard-pressed to find too many people who didn't know, or at the very least couldn't learn.

    A's Lyn

     

    I would think the G is silent.  Hence the reason I prefer the spelling Aislin-  I think I have seen that before.

    i'd probably think a's ling and then think it's a tricky one...maybe a-ling.

    A's Ling. 

    I know it's supposed to be Ash-lin, but I'd say A'sling instinctively.

    Only because I actually know this name: Ash-leen (that's the Gaelic pronunciation).
