From spirit guides of the underworld to otherworldly dragons, baby Kylinn's imagination will know no limits. Blending Greek, Irish, and Chinese influences into one cute package, Kylinn is heavily influenced by Kylin, Kaelee, and Kyle. In Irish, Kylinn may come from caol, which translates to "slender." There is also a Greek connection to katharos, which is the foundation for "pure" in names such as Catherine, Kate, or Kaia. Speaking of Greece, the goddess Hekátē lends the meaning of "keeper of the keys" as she unlocks the way to transitions in life and death. As a celestial bonus, Qilin, or Kylin, appears as a fortune-bringing dragon-like creature in Chinese mythology, adding to the rare charm your little Kylinn is sure to radiate!
