Pronunciation of Lin in China

In China, Lin is primarily classified as a female name. The Chinese pronunciation, specifically in San Francisco, CA, USA, passed from Guandong province, China, is

pronounced like the English word "Lean." lIn

The vowel sound is stressed though, so the even though they are both one syllable words, Lin seems shorter.

If you pay attention to how you pronounce the two, your tongue will touch just above your back teeth quickly with the name. But the word "lean" touches all the same places but no part of the word is stressed so your mouth is much more relaxed while going though the same motions.
