I really like the name Ailyn, but have no idea where it comes from and what it means. Can anyone help me out?

I googled it (you should always try Google first), and it seems to be a surname as well as a first name. And according to this site (http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/0/Ailyn), it's derived from Aileen. I'm a bit skeptical, although it seems to be most commonly used as a Spanish name, so it would probably be pronounced eye-LIN, which is similar to Aileen. So maybe they're right.

Thank you.

And I did Google it too, but the exact spelling that I like did not have very many answers for me.

By the way, is there any chance that is comes from the name Aisling; Meaning vision or trick.

I think it's pronounced like AY-lin.
