Pronounced AD-uh-lind /ˈæd.ə.lɪnd/Medium

History & Origin
Adalynd is a contemporary respelling of Adalyn and Adaline, whose Adal- element means 'noble' in the old Germanic naming tradition. Adalyn surged in the twenty-tens, and this -d ending is one of many creative variants; the meaning stays anchored in the noble root.
It was never common in this spelling, given to only about sixteen girls a year at its peak in the late twenty-tens. A girl named Adalynd then is still a young child today.
