I pronounce
Emmeline with the long i sound although I'm pretty much weary of all
Em names by this point. Having said that, as long as she isn't called
Em or
Emmy, the name will be more distinctive. Also, this is by far the best spelling. I think it's a great complement to your kids' names (especially
Rhys and
Griffin).
ETA that I actually prefer Emma-LEEN. It's just that the long i pronunciation is my default pronunciation.
