History & Origin

Averylynn is a compound of two familiar pieces. Avery came to English through Norman French from a Germanic name usually explained as 'elf counsel'; Lynn traces to Welsh llyn, 'lake,' and has become the most common name-ending in modern American girls' naming. Written together they make a soft, current compound (said 'AV-uh-ree-lin').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, soft, and newly emerging.

Did you know? Lynn began as a Welsh word for a lake, became a mid-century American favourite, and now works mostly as a name-ending - joined here to the very popular Avery.
