  It's not bad, but I too thought it looked like it could be made up.

  *Siggy Warning*

  About me  2007: Started TTC. 2008: OB prescribed clomid, went to RE and was Dx with PCOS. 2009: IUI #1 w/follitsim and trigger = BFP.

  It is a "real" name.  It's Welsh and it means, "To strive or excel".

  It seems like it's missing something... letters, maybe.

  I've heard of Emilyn through watching Army Wives. Is Emlyn pronounced the same way or do you really just say 2 syllables? I like it but think the spelling looks off even though it's a real name. Maybe Emilyn or Emlynn? I'm not sure.... GL!

  True but it's a Welsh BOY name.

  I kind of thought "Gremlin" when i read it. I do like Emilyn though.

  It looks misspelt like it's missing a vowel or something. I love Emily and Emma, but not this name.

  don't like it - like PPs said, it looks and sounds like it's missing something.

  I'm not crazy about it. I actually thought of Gremlin first.

  This - at least, that's how I'm familiar with it.

  I agree with the others.

  It looks like the name Emmalyn or Emmaline but missing a syllable. It would be like naming a child Madlyn or Madline instead of Madelyn/Madeline. Without the middle syllable it sounds too close to "gremlin" in my opinion.

  I don't like it. I think something like Emmalyn would be better.
