minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-22 months agoNever heard of this, what are some examples? Maybe caitlin? Just looked that up, it’s an Irish name.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink12•2 months agoI don’t think there’s any history, it was just popular in the midwest in the 2000s Caitlyn, Kaylin, Ashlin, Jaylin, Roselin, Jaquelin, Shaelin. Same with adding “leigh”
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•2 months agoThe English name suffix -in comes from the french name suffix -inne which is a feminine modifier. Eg. Jacques is a masculine name, Jacqueline is a feminine name.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•2 months agoBut those are just names that already existed? I thought you meant like taking a name like Simon and making it Simonlin or Adam to Adamlin
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•2 months agoYou take a common name and add “lin” or any variation of that sound at the end. The only example I have at the top of my head is Jessica-Lyn because I knew one person with that name in the past, but you get the gist.
