Gracelyn

I thought it was too much at first. Why not just Grace? But as far as -lyn names go, I no longer hate it. I think I like it better than Grace Lynn as a first and middle.

It’s not particularly bad! I’ve only known of two people with this name in my life, so it’s unique. The name Grace is one of my favorites, so I prefer it. However, this name has some nice flair!

LOVE IT. It's one of my favorite names and it's just so so so pretty!

So uncommon, use a common name like Grace, or Lynn/Lyn, or like Sophia.

Kind of growing on me. Never thought it would, but it's an alternative to the popular Brooklyn. Also to all those Elvis fans out there, it can be a tribute to Graceland.

I don't care for it, but it's not the worst name in the world. Just use Grace instead.

Actually, I like this name, it really looks elegant and quality. Grace as a name itself is good, Lyn feels boring, but together they make beauty. Gracelyn is a good name!

Why all this hate? It's very elegant and graceful. I can picture it on an actress in the 1950s. Or on a happy little girl today. It's adorable.

I like Gracelyn way better then Grace, and Gracie. It's so unique and pretty! It fits a woman and a child!

I actually kind of... like this? It’s not at all my style of name, and I wouldn’t use it but I do find it cute and happy sounding. Maybe as a middle name.

Not my cup of tea...

I think I love my name, it's a piece of my family.

We have a Gracelyn, we have a Katelyn, we even have an Emmalyn. What's next? Paigelyn?

Gracelyn is my name which I have registered it on country register in late 1970s in Singapore. It's a reminder to me to age graciously as I travel my life journey. Am a fan of and it's a combo of Grace Kelly, ending with a 'n'. :)

I find the -lyn tacky and unnecessary.

This is my name and I go by Grace.

This... just NO. I don't find it necessary or even very cool at all to add all these suffixes to names. Why not just use the normal "Grace"? At least that name is better than... whatever this is.

It's tacky to add -lyn to a regular damn name.

Not a fan, kind of sounds 'scratchy', in a way.

I think this name is absolutely beautiful. I’m tired of hearing all of the “Graceland” comments... it doesn’t even sound the same!

Much prefer Gracie, a lovely twist on the overused Grace without being too trendy.

My name is Gracelyn and I personally think it is a beautiful name and I like it! People think that the name is about "Graceland" but it's not because in my name does it say land at the end? NO.

Such a beautiful name. Less used than Grace and more pretty than Lynn it's the perfect alternative. Another name I like is Tracelyn.

This name sounds really tacky. It also makes me think of Graceland.

I don't like the name Gracelyn. It's as though the parents thought Grace was too short so they added the trendy -lyn suffix to the end of it. If the parents wanted to honour a Grace and a Lynn, then I think they should have named their daughter Grace (first name) Lynn (middle name).

This name in my opinion is tacky and trendy and will not age well.

I think it's a refreshing alteration to the name Gracy or/and Lynn.

I don't know why everyone dislikes this name, but in my opinion, it's a nice name for a young lady. Not overused and not too well-known; I like it.

One of my best friends is called Gracelyn Lucian. I love the name!

My daughter's name is Gracelyn and I am in no way a fan of Elvis Presley or "Graceland". I wanted Lynn in her name after my mom, so I added it to Grace.

I prefer Grace and Lynn used on their own.

I'm not a fan of Gracelyn. I already think Grace sounds harsh (rather the opposite of the name's meaning), but Gracelyn looks like the parents wanted to name their daughter after Elvis Presley's Graceland Estate but decided that Graceland looked too masculine.
(Also, while Graceland's lot, in acres, is impressive, the house itself is nothing special - very 70s.)
