My brother and his wife just had their second daughter!!!
Maelyn
Irene, little sister to
Ashlyn Jones
WDYT of these names???
I HATED Maelyn at first, but loved
IreneHowever, Maelyn is REALLY growing on me!
I like how the name is used in an honoring way.
My sister-in-laws fathers side came from
Malin Head in
IrelandSo her name is a variation of that.
After doing some research I discovered this:
"The village name itself pays homage to the Catholic Saint
Mary Magdalene,
Malin being a medieval diminutive combination of the names
Mary and
Magdalene. This displays the effectiveness of Saint Patrick’s missionary legacy, spreading Catholicism throughout the whole of
Ireland."
