Locklyn is a tragedeigh. Agree with PPs that the best idea is to name either gender Lake as a middle name.

Lake as a middle name is perfect.

Lachlan is OK.

Locklyn is terrible. Lake or even Laken is fine as a first name.

I'd say no to both. Suggestion of Lake as a middle name is good.

Lachlan is nice for a boy (and the meaning is close enough, geez) and I like Lake for a girl.

I do like mom's maiden name for Middle, so Lake works out for a boy and a girl.

Me too. I know a baby Lachlan and most peoples' reaction to the name is like "Oh! Um, how nice!"

I think Lake is a lovely middle name for either boy or girl.

I'd just make their middle name Lake whether you crank out a boy or girl.

If you really want to honor your surname, just use Lake for a girl not a misspelled, invented feminization of a male name that sort of references your surname (Lachlan means land of the lakes, not Lake. Locklyn means nothing at all).

My maiden name is Lake, and I was thinking of using Lachlan for a boy or Locklyn for a girl since the name means lake in Scottish. Thought?
