    This was Dps fave name all through my pg!

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

    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 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

    Great suggestions girls. I will run them by DP.

    It is exciting actually having a name for our little one now. We are keeping it top secret from family and friends though.

    The traditional spelling is beautiful but I dont think people would know how to say it.

    Mother Goose- I like it with to n's as well. We will have to see what DP thinks. Ashlyn or Ashlynn
