Darlyn

Darlyn is a modern respelling of Darlene, a feminine name of Old English origin. From the Anglo-Saxon dēorling, Darlyn gets its meanings “darling” and “precious,” but it may also stem from darel-ene, meaning “little dear one.” Darlene was incredibly popular in the 20th century but has stepped to the sidelines over the decades, earning its title as a retro/vintage baby name. With its cool-kid “y” spelling, Darlyn is short, sweet, and contemporary and will complement baby’s adorable personality.
