"Blend of Ana and Lyn"
The name Analyn is commonly a female name.
Analyn is a modern formation that joins Ana, a short form of Anna, to the ending Lyn, from Lynn. The same pattern produced a large group of English-language names ending in -lyn in the twentieth century. The name's first appearance in United States birth records in 1974 fits that modern pattern rather than an older naming tradition.
The pronunciation of Analyn is AN-uh-lin.
