Lirin is Albanian, Hebrew in Origin.

Lirin is a modern cross-cultural given name with several plausible roots. In Hebrew, it aligns with the li + rin/ron family (as in Liran and Liron), deriving from the root r-n-n "to sing, rejoice," yielding meanings such as "my song" or "my joy." A Celtic reading links it to Lir, the Irish sea deity; with the Irish diminutive suffix -ín, Lirín would mean "little Lir" or "of the sea." Some also connect it to Albanian lir "free," the base seen in names like Liridon, giving Lirin an aspirational sense of "freedom."

Usage is rare but growing in the late 20th and 21st centuries, typically as a unisex choice. Visibility has been helped by modern fantasy literature, where Lirin appears as a character name. Variants and related forms include Liron, Liran, Liri, Lir, Leeron, Lyrin, and Lirín. Short forms such as Liri or Rin are common nicknames.
