Lynah Origin and Meaning

The name Lynah is a girl's name.

Lynah is a rare feminine name with possible origins as a variant of Lina or Lynn. It may also derive from Irish surname Ó Laigheanáin or be related to the Latin 'linum' meaning 'flax.' This uncommon name has maintained a consistent low profile throughout recorded naming history, never reaching widespread popularity. The spelling with the 'h' ending gives it a distinctive quality while maintaining the pleasing sound of more familiar names. Lynah carries a delicate, somewhat mysterious appeal that might attract parents seeking a truly unique choice. The name's rarity means a child named Lynah would likely be the only one in her social circles, offering individuality without being too unconventional in pronunciation or sound.
