It will be Lynn or Sky (we don't like the extra unnecessary 'e' on either name).

Thanks!

I think you are assuming it is a girl when it is a boy.

Lyn is a strong name, not common but also not too out there. Sky, if you like it, go for it.

Common can either mean very numerous. Or common as in "common as muck". Not something anyone should aspire to.

Any Lynn I've ever known looked like one of the Nolans and acted crazier than a rat on acid.

Sky is a bit Britney Spears.
Lynn is the best of a bad bunch.

i like Sky. Although prefer the Skye spelling a little bit more because of makes me think of Isle of Skye.

Lynn just makes me instantly think of Alan Partridge, sorry!

I prefer Lynn. but I really like Linnet which is similar but less associated with a particular generation.

I was thinking this week that Lynn or Lynne, as I see it spelt in my head, is due a renaissance.
It's really nice.
Then someone mentioned Linnet! Oh I love that name so much.
My naming days are far behind me but in my next life I hope I am called Linnet or am a Linnet 😊

I'd go for Skylynn.

tooclosetocall · 29/01/2017 00:05

Lynn.

Thegiantofillinois · 29/01/2017 00:06

Llinos or Lilian?

hoddtastic · 29/01/2017 00:11

don't like Sky (any spelling of it) at all.

Lynn, it's an odd choice, not a nice sounding word- is it to honour someone?

Sophronia · 29/01/2017 05:30

Lynn

MitzyLeFrouf · 29/01/2017 05:31

I've never met a well adjusted Lynn.
