Personal experiences with the name Andelyn

This is my sister's name and I was always jealous of her when we were children. My husband and I are planning on naming our next daughter after my sister but we are going to spell it Andelynne.

The name Andelyn is a very uncommon name. When I tell people my name they are shocked and think it is so pretty and unique. I prefer to go by a shortened version, because it is a sophisticated style name. Very fun to have, because no one else has it around you.

I named our daughter Andelyn and I love it. I have to spell it out and it is often confused for other similar sounding names, like Adalyn, but I have grown to love her name more and more. Andee is such a cute nickname for her. Andelyn is the perfect name for fun nicknames.
