Meaning of Raelynn
Raelynn is a modern name that blends Rae and Lynn. Rae is a short form of Rachel, a Hebrew name meaning ewe, and is also used as a feminine form of Ray. Lynn is usually traced to the Welsh word llyn, meaning lake. Because Raelynn is a combination, it has no single traditional meaning.
The name is pronounced RAY-lin, and both halves, Rae and Lynn, work as short forms.
