Reply to: Carolyn by Lily
It sounds a bit dated but not much. I know an older woman named Carolyn but I also know a teenager named that. I know a young woman about 19 or 20 named Caroline. I don't pronounce them the same. Carolyn ends in -lyn pronounced lin with a short i sound. Caroline ends with -line like the word line. It has a long i.
