This. But if you have to ask someone how they would pronounce the name its probably a bad name to give.

I'd probably guess

Devin = DEV-in

Devan = day-VON

Not IMO. I just want to see variations and regional differences.

I pronounce them both Dev.in, just like I pronounce my DD's name Ryan. I spelled it with two n's for a reason and all is well!
