Do you like Nyleen/Nylene (not sure of the spelling) for a girl, or is it too unusual? I can’t remember where I first heard this name, but I remember thinking it was pretty. I certainly like it more than Darlene, Marlene, Maureen, and Norene, as it feels fresher. I actually think this style of name is due a comeback.

It sounds medical. Or like someone who has a bad perm.

It sounds like Nylon.

Reminds me of neoprene

Sounds like a character in a 1970's Aussie soap.

Sounds like a brand name for tights.
