Kaylan is a modern gender-neutral name with roots in several languages. Kaylan takes inspiration from the Irish name Caolán, meaning “slender.” Kaylan and similar monikers are often thought to be combinations of the names Kay and Lyn, giving little ones who carry these titles plenty of meanings to consider. Kay derives from the Greek word katharós, meaning “clean” or “pure,” perhaps symbolizing baby’s kind and loving spirit. Lyn is closely linked to the Welsh word lyn, meaning “lake,” and the name Linda, which translates to “beautiful” in Spanish or “soft” and “tender” in German.
