This Scandinavian name will be the perfect fit for any little one with a zest for life. A variant of Linnae or Linnéa, Lynae honors the "twinflower," a highly fragrant bloom named for Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus. Typically appearing in June or July, twinflowers grow in pairs, so they're a lovely symbol for a tiny tot who'll arrive in a duo or will be welcomed by a sibling or two. Lynae can also be a variant of the Welsh, German, and Spanish moniker Lynn. Lynn's meanings, "lake," "beautiful," and "soft," could encourage your Lynae to appreciate the wonder of the great outdoors.
