Would you please let me know how to spell and pronounce the name "Ayisha". Does "Ayisha Aylin" make sense?

This is an official answer by QuranicNames.com Staff
Ayisha is pronounced as (A)mple + (I)slam + (SH)ape + h(U)mble. There is a pause between the A and the I, so Ayisha is more correctly pronounced as A'isha. But since this is difficult to say even Arabs say Ayisha, which is (A)mple + Y(ield) + beaut(I)ful + (SH)ape + h(U)mble. The "A" at the beginning is a long A and the stress is on it: Aaayisha, the "yisha" part is said quickly.
Ayisha means someone who lives well, who has a good life, Aylin is a Turkish name meaning halo around the moon. Ayisha Aylin means "Aylin, the woman who lives well, who has a good life". To me the meaning is acceptable.
