I have never been a fan of this name but it has begun to grow on me a bit. Of all the spellings of this name Lochlyn is my favorite. The meaning is nice and the pronunciation is easy enough. I saw this on someones blog once but I can't remember if I commented and if I did I can't remember if I liked or disliked the name. Now I am liking this name more and more every time I see, hear, and say it.
