Marie-Lynn is in Origin.

Marie-Lynn blends the French form Marie - ultimately from Hebrew Miryam via Latin Maria - with Lynn, a modern English name from Welsh llyn “lake,” or from Old English/Gaelic elements linked to pools and waterfalls. The meaning of Marie is debated, often glossed as “beloved,” “wished-for child,” or associated with the sea; together, Marie-Lynn evokes a water-tinged sense such as “beloved by the waters” or “wished-for child of the lake,” while retaining Marie’s devotional link to the Virgin Mary in Catholic traditions.

Hyphenated double given names featuring Marie are common in France, Belgium, and Quebec, and Marie-Lynn follows that pattern while appealing to English-speaking families who favored Lynn as a middle name in the mid-20th century. Documented variants include Marie-Lynne, Marie-Lyne (French), Marie Lynn (unhyphenated), Marielynn and Marielyn; related forms are Mary-Lynn, Marilyn, and Marilynn.
