History & Origin

Rebeccalynn writes together the classic Rebecca, from the Hebrew Rivkah, and the tidy Lynn, a Welsh word for a pool. The one-word compound reflects a fashion for merged double names, and it reached a small high in the mid nineteen-nineties.

It was never common, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak, and its run was brief. A girl named Rebeccalynn at that high is in her early thirties today. The name carries Rebecca's deep biblical roots in a homespun, of-its-era compound.

Did you know? Rebeccalynn is really a first-and-middle pairing run together, a style that flourished in the nineteen-nineties South, where double names like Bobbie Jo and Mary Beth were cherished.
