Which way would you spell it? I really like Aislinn - but worry people would see it and pronounce it wrong then?

Grace would have been my #1 choice, though I do like Aisling very much, too. (Even in the States, I would probably use the Aisling spelling, but I can certainly understand wanting to avoid the constant corrections of mispronunciations!!) I couldn't vote for Gracie, though; it's just too nicknamey for me.

I love Aisling (Aislinn is fine too), but I don't like the spelling Ashlynn. (I wasn't clear which spelling you were actually considering.)

Gracie is too nickname-y for me.

I chose Gracie. I don't care for Ashlynn at all, but also with this spelling, it will almost guarantee that she will have to correct the spelling/pronounciation of her name for most of her life.

I have to say I love the spelling Aislinn, but do worry about the mispronounciation. I think its just something to consider, but it wouldn't change whether or not I would use the name.


HTH!!

Gracie is a nickname, not a full name. Aislinn easily got my vote.
