Marrilynne Origin and Meaning

The name Marrilynne is a girl's name.

Marrilynne is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Marilyn, with additional letters added for uniqueness. The name Marilyn itself combines Mary and the -lyn suffix, with Mary originating from Hebrew meaning 'bitter' or 'beloved.' This elaborated version maintains the melodic quality of Marilyn while offering a distinctive alternative. Marrilynne remains relatively uncommon, allowing bearers to enjoy individuality while still connecting to the more recognized Marilyn. The name peaked in popularity during the mid-20th century, inspired by cultural icons like Marilyn Monroe, but this particular spelling variation has remained rare, making it an unusual choice for parents seeking something familiar yet different.
