    Personally I find it weird, and sort of made up but thats my opinion anyway.

    Chloe-belle what a beautiful username, those are two names that are close to my heart.

    I am sorry though I wouldn't use either name firstly I think that Lake is definitely a boy's name not on its way to the girls and Lakelyn reminds me of the much maligned Brooklyn.

    If you need a hand making a list give us some guidelines and we will help you out.

    I taught a female Lake (siblings Coleman and Woods) which is probably why I don't have that much of a problem with it for a girl. However, it is not really my style.

    I think of Lake as a last name because I went to school with someone with that last name. Honestly, I'm not a big fan. I'm also not a fan of most word names, so that's probably why.

    I don't like it. A lake is a body of water where you can go fishing, water-skiing, boating, etc. Lakelyn looks like a creative spelling of Lachlan where the parents also mispronounced the original name. Sorry.

    I've only known a boy Lake (siblings Leif and Sky, all boys), so I think it's a boys name.

    I agree that Lakelyn looks like a misspelling of Lachlan that's been miss pronounced. Sorry >.<

    I don't mind Lake, I could see it working on a boy maybe, but Lakelyn just looks like a mishmash to me.

    I think Lake is fine, though I don't like Lakelyn.

    I love the name on the actress Lake Bell. But it's one of those that I wouldn't use in "real life".
