LYNN RAY

Of uncertain origin: possibly an altered short form of Linda, or a derivative of the French name Line, which originated as a short form of various girls' names ending in this syllable, for example Caroline. The element -lyn(n) has been a productive suffix of English girls' names since at least the middle of the 20th century, Lynn itself having enjoyed considerable popularity in the 1950s and 60s, especially.

English (of Norman origin): nickname denoting someone who behaved in a regal fashion or who had earned the title in some contest of skill or by presiding over festivities, from Old French rey, roy ‘king’. Occasionally this was used as a personal name.
