    Another 2 cents from me - I feel like many people will look at Fallen and think it may be an attempted SS spelling of Fallon. I think this mainly because Fallen only makes me think of someone saying they've fallen, and I couldn't imagine it as someone's name. That may just be me. I don't really see a doable way to make it clear the name is to be pronounced Fall-Lynn unless you get into seriously "you.-.neek" spellings at which point - just no.

    I agree with pp that you will never get anyone to say "Fall Lynn" with any of those spellings.

    I knew a girl named Fallon.  I definitely like it spelled like that and maybe it's just because that's how she spelled her name.  The other versions don't look right.  But yes, it is definitely a less common name.  I don't think you need a unique spelling.

    I like Fallon. I used to work with a girl who had that name. I'm not crazy about the alternate "y" spelling though. The name is unique on its own :)

    I didn't bother to read everyone's comments. I prefer Fallon over Fallyn, and as a middle name for a girl. Definitely not a first. Not only that, but a friend of mine has a brother named Fallon so I can't help think it's more male. Same thing with Jimmy Fallon. I do like the name Lucy/Lucille though

    One of the tricks I heard about deciding on a baby name is to try and imagine someone saying to you "Oh, I would love you to meet ____ I think you and he/she would hit it off!" Or picture that your brother (if you have one) or a male friend just met a girl named ____, what is your first feeling? Things like that.

    The way you spell/explain it, it looks like it would be pronounced Fallen? Which I'm really not a fan of. 
     
    My friend has a daughter named Phelan (pronounced Fay-lynn), it's an Irish name (mainly surname), and I love it.

    Personally I'm not a fan but don't let that stop you. I don't let other people decide my baby names.  If DH and I agree, I don't care what other people think.
