Etymology of GRACILYN

The name Gracilyn is a combination of two separate names, Grace and Lyn.

1. Grace is derived from the Latin word gratia, which means favor or graciousness. It entered the English language through the Old French word grace, and carries connotations of elegance, beauty, and charm.

2. Lyn is often considered a short form or nickname for names ending in -lyn or -line. It has its roots in various Germanic languages, such as Old English and Old German, where it is a diminutive or a shortened form of other names. For example, Linda can be shortened to Lyn.
