Hiya! Looking for thoughts on the name Joylynn?

Not visually pleasing.

DramaAlpaca · 25/06/2016 17:53

It sounds like an American country music singer, and like Creature said it's not visually pleasing.

It looks clunky written down and it doesn't flow easy from the mouth when trying to say it.

The name Joy is lovely on its own IMO

BlossomHillOne · 26/06/2016 08:18

I initially quickly read it as Jolyon and then stumbled over the actual name - sorry I don't like it.

LadyStarkOfWinterfell · 26/06/2016 08:22

Dreadful I'm afraid

sooperdooper · 26/06/2016 08:24

I'm not quite sure how I'd pronounce it immediately, not keen, sorry

Joy is lovely on its own - could it be Joy with Lynn as the middle name?

Or Joy-Lynn?

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 26/06/2016 08:31

It's a Duggar's name so a no from me.

Joy is lovely.

tattychicken · 26/06/2016 08:32

Just no.

Oblique27 · 26/06/2016 08:49

No

EmpressOfTheSevenOceans · 26/06/2016 08:54

I'd go for Joy with Lynn as second name.

Tiggeryoubastard · 26/06/2016 08:58

Joylynn lives in a trailer with a man in a vest.

eyebrowsonfleek · 26/06/2016 09:01

What about Jocelyn?

RandomMess · 26/06/2016 09:07

I also thought it was Jolyon at first.

I think Jocelyn is much nicer than Joy Lynne.

Atrocious. Joy is nice, and Jolanda (pron yolanda)

villainousbroodmare · 26/06/2016 22:37

Two names aggressively hammered together. Jocelyn and Joy both nice names. Lynn also fine. Joy Lynn is fine too.

purplefox · 27/06/2016 01:18

I love Joy, but hate Lynn and them stuck together is terrible.

Raines100 · 27/06/2016 06:19

Another here who read it as Jolyon first. Joy Lynn is fine- the space is necessary for readability!

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 27/06/2016 10:15

It's a Duggar's name so a no from me.

Joy is lovely.

Actually the Duggars have a Joy and a Johanna but no Joylynn. Wink

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 27/06/2016 10:21

Give it time...Wink

Scarydinosaurs · 27/06/2016 10:45

Jocelyn or Jolene as alternatives?

TwinklingStar123 · 27/06/2016 10:48

Nice seperate but I don't think the names go very well together

CarriMarie · 27/06/2016 10:53

How about Caitlin or Caitlyn Joy?

underrugsswept · 27/06/2016 10:54

Awful!
