Dylin Origin and Meaning

The name Dylin is a girl's name.

Dylin is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Dylan, traditionally a masculine Welsh name meaning 'son of the sea' or 'born from the ocean.' This alternative spelling with an 'i' instead of 'a' gives the name a more feminine appearance while maintaining its connection to nature and Welsh heritage. Though Dylan has historically been used for boys, the trend of using traditionally male names for girls has made variations like Dylin more common for females in recent decades. The name carries a sense of freedom and natural beauty associated with its oceanic meaning. Its simple pronunciation combined with the unique spelling offers familiarity with a touch of distinctiveness.
