[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter’s name is Caroline. Pronounced the usual way. You would NOT believe how many people say it wrong, usually Carolyn. REALLY??!? (And I’m not talking about ESL. Our Housecleaner calls her Car-o-lee-nah in a beautiful accent and I love it.) But yes OP, I correct people who say Carolyn.[/quote] So her name has a long "i" sound at the end? Huh. I would've pronounced it like Carolyn, similar to Katherine. We don't say Kath-er-rhine.[/quote] np but duh. Caroline and Carolyn are pronounced differently. [/quote] Not necessarily. I know Carolines who end like the Katherines. This confused me as a child. I think Little House on the Prairie was the first time I hear Caroline and thought the long I was totally weird. [/quote]
