Tara-Lynne is Gaelic, Welsh in Origin.

Tara-Lynne is a modern hyphenated feminine name formed from Tara and Lynne. Tara carries two well-attested sources: Irish Temair/Tara, the ancient seat of Ireland's High Kings, often interpreted as "elevated place" or "eminence"; and Sanskrit Tara, "star" and the name of a protective deity. Lynne derives from the English/Welsh name Lynn, ultimately from Welsh llyn, "lake." Combined, Tara-Lynne evokes "eminence by the lake" or "star by the lake."

Compound names with a hyphen flourished in English-speaking countries in the mid- to late 20th century, and Tara-Lynne saw most use from the 1970s onward, especially in Canada and the UK; in the U.S., spacing (Tara Lynne) is more common.
