Boys names ending in lyn?

My husbands middle name is lynn, my name ends in lyn, & my mother in laws name is Lynn. I think it's be cool to do all "lyn" names. The only thing I'm concerned with is I only like one boy name that ends in Lynn (Flynn).

- Would it be weird if we ended some of the boys names in lan or Lin & others in lyn?

- Do you know of any other boy names that would go with this theme?

- What do you think of Madelyn, Evelyn, & Courtlyn (too made up sounding?) for girls?

Thanks!

:)

    Aww, Flynn is an adorable name!

    I think it's great that you're using "lyn" names, so it kind of runs in your family.

    Some other suggestions:

    Franklyn

    Chaplyn

    Bailyn

    Kalyn

    Dylyn

    Bralyn

    Ashlyn

    Brooklyn

    Allyn

    Sorry, I can't think of many!

    I like your girl's names.

    Madelyn is cute, but I much prefer Adelyn.

    I love Evelyn, and Courtlyn sounds really nice.

    Really hope this helps, if not, I'm sorry.

    Best of luck!

    Use the masculine form Lin not the femine Lyn' I love Carlin what about:

    Devlin

    Kalin

    Thomlin - Tomlin

    Dalin

    Marlin

    Rylin

    Breslin

    Lin is more feminine to me either way it's spelt but having Lin instead of Lin obviously makes it more acceptable as a masculine name

    I like most Lyn ending name for girls some can get a little tacky but most are totally usable and nice for example Ashlyn :) x

    Allyn which is male compared to the female Alyn.

    Celyn, Dillyn and Dilyn and you can also use Y in place of the i.

    Halyn, Heilyn, Iolyn; I believe its pronounced yo lyn. Llewellyn Llewelyn and Llwellyn Merlyn which is normally Merlin.

    Suraj Sonule's pretty much right, but Dallan is a completely male, fairly popular name. I have a coworker and two neighbors named Dallan.

    I really like Chaplin and Colin. I'd totally name a kid Chaplin. Chaplain? (sp?)

    There's also Alan (sort of) and Galen (my dad's name is Galen)

    --

    For girls:

    Courtlyn would be way cute, she'd just have to spell it to people forever. Madelyn's way cute. I personally am not a huge fan of Evelyn, but that's just me. I have a cousin named Carolyn, if that helps?

    Fallyn - However I would say this is very feminine ... i had one person tell me they thought it was too masculine

    Callyn

    Collyn

    Dillyn

    Declyn

    Franklyn - i love this !!

    Jaelyn

    Kellyn

    Lachlyn

    Lochlyn

    Nolyn

    I personally think that you'd be better giving him a name ending in lin or lan because Lyn and Lynn is extremely weird looking on boys names

    How about Harlyn for a boy? I went to school with a Harlen Jordan spelled this way but lyn could work for it!

    For girls those are cute choices. Not personally fond of courtlyn, but that's just me. How about:

    Gracelyn (Grace, Gracie)

    Ashlyn

    Amberlyn

    Jesslyn

    Jessalyn (Jessa)

    Katlyn (Kat, Katty)

    Katelyn

    Jaylyn

    Marilyn

    Gwendolyn (Gwen)
