The history of the first name Adilyn

The name Adilyn is a relatively modern invention, believed to have originated in the late 20th century.

Adeline itself can be traced back to the German name Adelina, which was derived from the Germanic word "adal," meaning "noble."

While Adilyn may have been inspired by the historical Adeline, it does not have a direct lineage or documented usage prior to the late 1900s.
