Maylinn is English in Origin.
Maylinn is a modern feminine given name, most familiar in Scandinavia as the compound May-Linn. May reflects either the English month name (ultimately from the Roman goddess Maia) or a diminutive of Mary (Hebrew Miryam), while Linn is a Scandinavian short form of Linnea or Linda, or a variant of English Lynn from Welsh llyn "lake, pool". Put together, the name suggests spring freshness and gentle waters, though its sense depends on which roots one favors.
The name gained currency in Norway and Sweden in the late twentieth century amid enthusiasm for double names, and it appears in English-speaking countries as a recent blended or respelled choice. Spelling variants include May-Linn, Maylin, Maylyn, Maylynne, and Maelynn; related forms are May, Mae, Linn, and Lynn. It also phonetically overlaps with Chinese Meilin/Mei Lin, which, depending on characters, can mean "beautiful forest" or "plum-jade".
