Caylyne is English in Origin.

Caylyne is a modern English feminine name, a creative respelling in the Kaylin/Kaelyn family. It most plausibly blends Kay (a short form of Katherine) with the suffix -lyn/-line, with Kay tracing to Greek katharos "pure" and Lynn to Welsh llyn "lake, waterfall." Many also associate the broader Kaylin group with Irish Gaelic Caoilfhionn (caol "slender" + fionn "fair, bright"), giving Caylyne layered readings such as "pure," "slender and fair," or "pure lake."

Use rose in late-20th-century North America alongside other elaborated -lyn names and remains uncommon but recognizable. Spelling variants and close relatives include Caylin, Caylyn, Cailyn, Caelyn, Kailyn, Kaylin, Kaelyn, Kaylynn, Kaylene, and Caylene; related traditional forms are Caitlín/Caitlin and the Gaelic Keelin (from Caoilfhionn). Nicknames range from Cay/Caye and CeCe to Lyn/Lynnie. The name’s airy sound and flexible roots make it a contemporary choice with subtle Celtic and classical echoes.
