Zebulyn Origin and Meaning

The name Zebulyn is a boy's name.

Zebulyn is a modern variant spelling of the biblical name Zebulun, who was the tenth son of Jacob in the Old Testament. The original Hebrew name זְבוּלוּן (Zevulun) means 'dwelling' or 'habitation.' This contemporary spelling adds a distinctive touch while maintaining the name's ancient roots. Zebulyn offers parents a way to honor biblical tradition while giving the name a fresh, current feel. Though uncommon in mainstream usage, the name has seen modest interest among parents seeking unique names with historical significance. The 'y' spelling creates visual interest and distinguishes it from the traditional biblical form, while the 'Z' beginning gives it a strong, dynamic quality.
