Lynnda

Lynnda is a feminine name representing a spelling variation of Linda, which derives from the Spanish word 'linda' meaning 'beautiful.' The distinctive double 'n' and added 'a' give this traditional name a more elaborate and unique appearance. Linda was extremely popular in the United States during the 1940s-1960s, but Lynnda has always been a much rarer alternative. The name may also connect to the element 'lynn,' common in names and place names, originally meaning 'lake' or 'waterfall' in Welsh. Lynnda peaked in modest usage during the mid-20th century when Linda was at its height of popularity. Today, it offers a distinctive alternative to the more common Linda while maintaining the same pleasant sound and positive meaning of beauty.

Pronounced LIN-duh.

As of October 2026, Lynnda ranked #11396 in US births in 1980 SSA, peaked at #1262 in 1951.
