-yn

Today in the paper, I saw these two names in the birth announcements, both from different families:

Londyn Alexa

Berlyn Marie

So I guess now it's not enough to twist actual names by changing a letter to a y (Jordyn, Peytyn, Jaydyn, Addysyn) but now they're doing it to place names. Which makes no sense. Londyn as the 'feminine' form of London? What?

People actually ask you if it's spelled Bostyn? What is wrong with this world???

When I was 11, I liked Londyn. But I'm not 11 anymore.

I hate the random 'y' trend.

London is cuter than Londyn. And all I see when I look at Berlyn is Berly (like burly).

Ugh.
Don't know why people think that trend is a good idea- it just makes the name/word look weird! D:

Those double-y names (Peytyn, Jaydyn, Addysyn) are horrible, lol! Addysyn is especially funny. XD
