Etymology & Historical Origin of the Baby Name Jazlynn

Jazlynn is a modern American name invented by using the word “jazz” and further combining it with the popular “-lyn(n)” suffix. Jazz is a popular music genre which originated among Blacks in New Orleans, Louisiana in the late 1800s. It was inspired by and borrowed from ragtime, church gospel, spiritual songs, West African rhythms and white people harmonies. Jazz is defined by its syncopation and improvisation. Lynn comes from a Welsh word (llyn) meaning “lake”. So even though Jazlynn is an invented name (mostly used within the African-American community), we are assigning it the informal meaning of “Jazz Lake”.

Popularity

OF THE GIRL NAME JAZLYNN

Jazlynn has only been on the American female charts since 2007, so this is a newly invented name. Jazlyn with one “n” is the more popular spelling (and predates Jazlynn on the charts by 10 years), but Jazlynn with two “n”s has done okay all things considered. American parents love to invent names or play around with syllables and sounds. For instance, Jasmine turned into Jazmine for some parents. And the “-lyn(n)” suffix has always been is ϋber-crazy trendy such as Brooklyn, Evelyn, Jocelyn, Ashlyn, Katelyn and Madelyn. Or, like Jazlynn, the made-up variations like Kaelynn, Jaelynn and Raelynn. Such names are usually fleeting fads and don’t usually demonstrate the same staying-power we see with more traditional names. That being said, Jazlynn is still improving on the charts so more and more parents are apparently drawn to this “jazzy” moniker.
