History & Origin

Crystalynn is a modern American blend of Crystal, from the Greek word for clear ice, and the fashionable ending Lynn. Crystal soared through the nineteen-eighties, and elaborations like this one let parents keep the sparkle while adding a personal, lyrical tail.

The spelling tracks Crystal's own arc, appearing from the early nineteen-seventies and peaking around 1985 before fading with it. A girl named Crystalynn then is in her forties today.

Did you know? Crystalynn caught two trends at once, the popularity of Crystal and the habit of tacking Lynn onto girls' names, folding both into a single custom spelling.
