How would you spell _______ for a girl?

[AliBaby]

Just wanting some opinions on the spelling of our favourite name for our little girl

Ashlyn
Ashlin
Ashalin
Ashelyn

How would you spell it? My instinct is to go with first way of spelling it but this is the different ways people have spelt it to me when I have told them the name.

Also what middle names do you like to go with it?

[Arimeh]

Yeah I'd go with the first spelling.. but I'm a fan of "y" in a name.. (obviously..lol)

[[M]umma[M]ia]

i would go with Ashlyn.. great name btw

[Kazmar]

This was Dps fave name all through my pg!

It was on our list as Ashlyn. Nobody can mistake it that way

[Tiff+2]

A friend of mine has an Ashlyn! I like it spelt that way too

[maz]

What a gorgeous name......Im afraid I go against the grain though

Ashlen

[Aimz]

I would go with Ashlyn too. I also like the suggestion of Ashlen.

If you used Ashalin (or similar) you might find people place emphasis on the "ah" in the middle. Ashlyn flows much nicer.

i would go with Ashlyn.. great name btw

Thanks Holley. DP loves it as well. We only know one person called Ashlyn and she is an ex gf of one of our friends. WE think its a nice twist on Ashley even though we love that name too.

Thanks everyone else for your suggestions. I think we will end up spelling it Ashlyn so there is no mistaking the pronunciation.

Now to find a middle name to go with it....

If you used Ashalin (or similar) you might find people place emphasis on the "ah" in the middle. Ashlyn flows much nicer.

I think you are right. they might get confused

[Pandora]

I would actually spell it Aisling.

I think of the ones you listed the first two are the most straightforward to pronounce

what a beautiful name
yes definately Ashlyn- would be how i would spell it- it looks right to me!
a short middle name would be nice such as Eve, Jane, - something with one syllabal.
But it also depend on how long or short your last name is- a how creative or popular or traditional you want the middle name to be!
great choice!

For middle names I would suggest:

Ashlyn Grace
Ashlyn Rose
Ashlyn May
Ashlyn Eve

[Megan]

Just to be different, I like Ashlin Only because I have a preference to I's over y's!
But Ashlyn would be my second choice.
As far as middle names, Ashlin Kate popped into my head.
