Gracen...it might have been Grayson? I like that better, but I'm still not a fan.
I don't like most -lyn names, so Ashlyn is no exception.
Is Treven pronounced like Trevyn? I kinda like it.
Not a fan of Breighton.

I like Brighton for a boy, not so much Breighton for a girl.

I thought Aisling was pronounced ASH-ling?

Not to disagree with that site, but in my experience Aisling isn't pronounced the same as Ashlynn, even though Ashlynn is derived from Aisling.

You have to scroll down in all those sites to find the name, but they all say a variation of ASH-ling/lean.



I'm not trying to start an argument, really. Haha, I would just hate for you to use a name and then be upset when people pronounce it differently.

this site says "ASH leeng, ESH leeng" for Aisling. it also says "The phonetic/English renderings Ashlyn and Aizlynn are occasionally found in the USA."

i've always said Ashlyn as Ash-lyn, Aisling as Ash-ling, though.

I laughed at Gracen. That's so bizarre.

As a fellow Bruce Campbell/Evil Dead fan, I can tell you that his name was Ashley J. Williams nn Ash - not Ashlyn.
