Origin and meaning

Annalyn is a blended name created from Anna (ultimately from Hebrew Channah meaning 'grace' or 'favor') and the suffix '-lyn'. It gained immense popularity in the Philippines in the mid-to-late 20th century as part of the broader trend of constructing feminine names with the '-lyn' ending.

A modern blended name formed by combining the traditional name Anna with the popular English/Filipino diminutive suffix '-lyn'.
