or Aethlwynn

OP, I liked it in the context of an old english name, but other posters are right, that it's got too many modern connotations now.

+1 In fact, I think DCUM will decree that Larla just had a baby sister! It's just *that* bad of a name
I intend to use it in stories when we need more names than Larla and Larlo


Yes please. Larla is so tired. Let’s pick on baby sister Ethlyn for a bit.

+1 Either that or someone with a speech impediment trying to say one of those names. Keep looking OP.

I would sooner do Ethel Lynn so she has a choice as she grows about going by Ethel Lynn, Ethel, E. Lynn, Ellen, etc.

I'd never heard of it before and probably wouldn't use it myself, but if you love it, OP, go for it!

I know it’s an old name but because the “lyn” is so very, very popular in certain circles, it reads as invented.
