History & Origin

Veralyn is a blended American name: Vera (Latin verus, 'true'; Russian vera, 'faith') plus the tacked-on -lyn that shaped Carolyn, Rosalyn and Evelyn. It has a mid-century, front-porch warmth to it (said 'VEH-ruh-lin').

It appears only rarely for girls in the U.S. Rare, blended, and gently old-fashioned.

Did you know? Veralyn stitches together two eras — the vintage Vera, meaning 'faith' or 'true', and the -lyn ending that American parents have loved for a century (said 'VEH-ruh-lin').
