Interesting... this would somewhat honour my surname (using this spelling). I'm not sure about the sound. I feel like people should KNOW how to pronounce 'Shea' (from all the hundreds of times I have had to correct people saying my name) therefore they should know how to pronounce Shealyn. I'm still not sure how I actually feel about it; I probably wouldn't use it, but I don't think I completely dislike it.

Pronounced Shay-lin? I don't like it sorry

Is it really an actual name in actual use? Seems strange that several people would all go for such an odd spelling. Did you perhaps mean Shaelyn? Which still isn't to my taste at all, but at least there's no doubting what it's meant to sound like.

Not a fan. First of all the spelling and pronunciation are unclear. Shay-Lynn? Shee-lyn?
I'm going to assume it's the former. In that case, Shaelyn or Shaylin or something like that makes the issue much clearer. I still don't care for it, as it seems just a mashing together of the trendy lyn and shay sounds.
