Kazlyn

Meaning of Kazlyn

Kazlyn is a contemporary Anglo-American feminine name formed by uniting the Gaelic-rooted Casey—traditionally understood as “vigilant in battle”—with the Old English–Irish element Lynn, meaning “lake” or “waterfall.” First recorded in United States birth statistics in 2007, when it appeared five times at rank 983, it has since remained outside the top 900, registering between five and ten occurrences annually and reaching nine instances (rank 941) in 2024. Pronounced /keɪzlɪn/ in American English, the name exemplifies modern preferences for phonetic clarity and inventive compound structures. Its sustained rarity conveys exclusivity and individual distinction, while its dual etymology combines martial strength with natural tranquility, rendering Kazlyn an analytically compelling choice for discerning parents.
