I am by no means having a baby, considering my age, but I love baby names quite a lot.
A family name of mine is "-Lyn."
For years I was madly in love with the name "Madelyn Sierre." Not Sierra, just Sierre. I wanted to name a future daughter that for years, but now I'm contemplating it, because Madelyn is getting so popular.
Another name I REALLY like is Caitlyn Brielle, but Caitlyn has always been a pretty popular, and I'm not the kind of person who's going to name my kid a name that 3 others kids will have in her class.
So, my question is, What other names do you know/like containing -Lyn?
Thanks!


EDIT: On Opendiary, somebody suggested Katialyn. That's adorable, but I despise the spelling. K's get to me. Majorly.
So what spellings could spell it well?
Catealyn
Caitialyn
Catialyn
Caytealyn

And, my mum's name is Leigh... does that mean a straight EE sound can be spelled "eigh?"
In that case
Cateighalyn?
Wow that's too long, lol.

In each of the the names you list as phonetic alternatives to Caitlin, you include enough extra letters that people will be led to believe there is an extra syllable and the name is supposed to be said "Katie Allen".

P.S. My cousin's daughter's name is Meilyn. Very pretty!

Oh, I couldn't tell for sure how you wanted us to say it!

I wonder if you would like something like Acadia Lynn (Cady for short). A lot of people really like place names, and Acadia certainly fits the bill.
