    Deen, that's how I'd pronounce it. Is that the intention?

    Yeah, I'd pronounce the name the same way too.

    I'd pronounce it as Dain, you know. A bit hard to explain haha!

    Would it also be pronounced Dain?
    I'm now quite curious which one is good.

    'deen' is good. It's English, just like you pronounce DAYS or LAYS (the chips)

    Dayne is pronounced as Dean.
    Our little boy is also called that

    Tough name

    Deen. That's the most logical pronunciation in Dutch, I think. I get that it has English origins, but you just don't hear that sound in our language. So no, that soft 'sh' like in Days doesn't really come across here. It stays Deen.
