Help[Opinions] Re: Adeline
in reply to a message by Belphoebe
I prefer just Ada on its own, although Adeline is quite pretty. I pronounce it AD-ə-lien. I actually think that Ada as a nn for Adeline might be a bit of a stretch since Adeline has an "add" sound, whereas Ada has an "aid" sound.

I have heard Ada pronounced with the "add" sound before. I'm guessing that the OP is intending to pronounce Ada AD-ə rather than AID-ə in this case. I agree that Ada AID-ə would be a bit of a stretch.
