I like it! But you might correct the pronunciation a lot if you’re in North America - my mind goes right to “Oh-Lin” and that’s also what google says phonetically

As someone from North America, I also automatically want to pronounce it as "Oh-Lin." I feel like it needs to be spelled Ollin with two Ls to have it pronounced as "All-In."

Will probably be called olly

I like the name, but the spelling doesn't match the pronunciation, so I feel you will forever be correcting people. Perhaps Orlin?

I’m British and would also assume the Oh-lin pronunciation

I feel Orlin may be closer to the pronunciation you are after?

I’d say Ol-in and assume like Od-in. I wouldn’t assume it’s an A sound.

With a Scottish accent Orlin wouldn't work for the name we are after but interesting to hear everyone's take on it.

@Monica we like that 🙂 thanks

@Sarah I agree - I meant aw-lin originally but I do also like the Odin/Olin pronunciation as well. Thanks 👍🏼

All-In is a good pronunciation, I just like the words All In lol 😆 but on how to spell it I agree with @Kelli "Ollin" yeah you might have to correct people but why not start a new name trend and maybe overtime it will be common.

It’s cute! But I would say the phrase, “Olin, like Colin without the C” would be very common in your future.

Thanks Janicee and Paige. Fair points, I agree 👍🏼
