Dylun
Dylun Origin and Meaning
Dylun is a contemporary masculine name representing a modern spelling variation of Dylan. The traditional Dylan has Welsh origins meaning "son of the sea" or "born from the ocean," associated with a sea god in Welsh mythology. This alternative spelling with 'u' instead of 'a' gives the name a distinctive quality while maintaining the familiar pronunciation. The trend of altering vowels in established names gained popularity in the early 2000s as parents sought unique versions of classic names. While the traditional Dylan has remained consistently popular, Dylun offers individuality while keeping the name's essential sound and cultural connections. This spelling variation remains relatively uncommon, allowing a child to stand out while carrying a name that still feels familiar.
