I think it's best spelled with a C like Calelynn, Calelin. I don't really care for hyphenated names. With a K I think of that bitter leafy green vegetable Kale. Is this a combination of 2 family names? If so then I can see spelling it the same as the "namesakes".

What a mouthful! Is this difficult for anyone else to say? I'm trying to say it over and over and I can't make the sounds fast enough to parse both syllables. I can do "Kaylin" and "Kale Lynn" (with difficulty) or maybe "Kale-a-lin," but I can't get those "l"s to come out one after the other without blending, halting or adding a syllable between them.

Help! How are other people able to say this?

LOL! I thought the same thing, but didn't want to sound negative ... when I say it, it comes out with a heavy Southern-sounding accent (I'm from PA!). :) Glad it isn't just me.

I think it's spelled best as Kale Lyn (two words). I would pronounce all the names in your poll like kuh-LEL-un. I can't pronounce Kale-Lyn together because of the Ls.

Im the same! I cant pronounce it KALE-Lyn. It comes out Kaylin. But I love love love Kaylin, thats been my favorite name for years now. But if you are adamant of Kale-Lyn I would do Kale Lynn.. it just too hard to pronounce.

I was thinking the same about the pronounciation. I like it spelled Cailin or Cailyn or Caelyn or Caelin... or any with a K. (pronounced Kay-Lin)

OK - I'm sure we are all dying to know: why are you interested in this name?
