History & Origin

Cazlyn is a modern coinage. Caz works in British English as a short form for names like Cassandra, Carol and Casey, and the -lyn ending comes from Welsh llyn, 'lake,' now attached freely to almost any opening in American naming. The compound is new and has no documented older source, so routes are uncertain (said 'KAZ-lin').

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

Did you know? The z is what makes Cazlyn feel new - Caz has long been an English nickname for Cassandra or Carol, and here it has been built into a full name.
