Maelynn

If you can add Lynn to a name, someone will and Mae is no exception to the rule. This compound name sits somewhere between the mid-century charm of Marilyn, Jerilyn, and Jocelyn, and the contemporary cool vibes of Jazlynn, Oaklynn, and Emberlynn.

Used on a handful of girls since the 60s, it has really taken off in the last decade and is now given to around 215 babies each year.

Pronounced MAY-lin.

As of October 2026, Maelynn ranked #1055 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #996 in 2024.
