"My name is Jaelyn. I was born in 1974. At that time there weren't many people with this name. My parents combined their names, like many others on this page. However, back then I was one of few with this name, which is why my parents didn't give me a middle name, thinking my first name would always be original. Thanks JD & Lynda." Feb. 17, 2017: 
"My granddaughter's name is Jaelynn Matty Graise. She was named after her father-Jeremy, her mother-Jamie, and their middle names and my middle name-Lynn. The name Matty was named after my oldest son who passed away two months after she was born, my daughter wanted to name her after him, because she knew he wouldn't ever be able to have children."

"My 9 month old daughter has the name Jaelyn Irene.. and i love it.. i thought i was being original when i combined the bf's middle name with mine... James + Lynn = Jaelyn But apparently it's a common thing.. Lol either way the BEST name in the world.. i love it!" Feb. 25, 2011:
"My 6 month old daughters name is Jaelyn Yesenia Rayne. I love the name Jaelyn" Feb. 15, 2011:
"My name is Jaelyn Dane?. I was born in 1994. I've have only heard of my name once or twice around in Louisiana but they were always younger than me. My mom said she created the name because her middle name is lyn and my fathers middle name is jay and she put it together and made Jaelyn. I love it. I'm always the only Jaelyn in school. Being 17 I have heard alot of people pronouns my name wrong but you get used to it. (:" Jan. 18, 2011:
"I named my first born daughter Jaelyn when I was pregnant with her in 2001, she was born Dec 2001 and I thought I had created a beautiful name. By the time she started PreK, there were 3-5 other Jaelyn's and some were even boys with different spellings. Still love the name and wouldn't change it for the world! Jaelyn Marie Lennon" Dec. 27, 2010:

"I named one of my girl triplets, Jaelyn, back in June 1999. At that time, I only knew of one other Jalen - the basketball player. My husband picked out the spelling of the name which I wasn't thrilled with. We get alot of jaeLYN and some Jaclyn's. Overall, I think she loves her name because it is so unique but she's doomed to never have anything personalized. :(" Sep. 22, 2010:
"I named my daughter Jaelyn Rhianne and she was born in feb 2010. I ablutely loved that name, it means "gift of God in Hebrew". She is truly heaven sent:)" Aug. 23, 2010:

I thought my mother was very creative for 1967. She named me after my father Jay, but creatively changed the spelling. I have always been proud to have this name" Jan. 22, 2010:
"We named our daughter Jaelyn Marie. I also was frustrated by people emphasizing the "Lyn" People call her Jae Jae, or Jaely.

"Our daughter Jaelyn was born in October 2009. We had no idea that people would be pronouncing it 'Jae Lynn' with the Lynn part emphasized ... very frustrating." Nov. 8, 2009:
"My Jaelyn was born in March of 2004. I also thought I made it up. I liked Caitlynn but it was way too overused. When I ran it by my husband he said "like Jalen Rose? The basket ball player?". I spelled it out every way possible and settled with Jaelyn Cate. She has also been called JaeJae, J-Bird, Jae etc." Aug. 27, 2009:
"I named my daughter Jaelyn Lexi! It is a mixture of my middle name 'Jane' and my moms middle name 'Lynn'. I thought I was being original and made that up. Then I started telling people her name and found out I wasn't that original. But I still love it! It fits her perfectly!" Aug. 16, 2009:
"I named my daughter Jaelyn Aurora and she was born in 2006. I absolutely LOVE her name and the spelling. Too bad it's more popular than I thought." Aug. 12, 2009:
"wow who would of thought my name ws so rare n yet ive never met other girls with my name only 1 bt its wasnt a girl bt a boy n his name was spelled different bt other thn tat who would of thought" Jul. 25, 2009:
"Wow I didnt realize my name was so popular, personally I have never met anyone else with my name except for babies of friends and family named after me.
My name is Jaelyn Rae. I LOVE my name :) It is, or at least it was, very unique when I was growing up. The most common mistake I get is people calling me "Jay-leen", maybe it should have another "n" (Jaelynn) to really emphasise the "lynn", who knows LOL. I love my middle name paired with it as well, I get a lot of compliments, usually along the lines of being romantic and feminine. Plus the "Jae" and "Rae" written together looks pretty cool, but I may be biased!
To top it off, my hubby's name is Jayden Ryan...what are the odds right? LOL So now when people look at our written names quickly, they often confuse them, or miss that there are two different names even though they are spelled quite differently.
We were really tempted to keep with the theme for our kids then decided to spare them the confusion so we have Caleb Ethan and Kylie Skye. I was determined that they would not be "common" names, though Kylie is pretty popular now too." Jul. 1, 2009:
"I am 5 months pregnant with a little girl and the father's name is Jason, but everyone calls him "Jay". He was so set on the name Jayden if it was a boy, but I instantly fell in love with the name Jaelyn when I heard it. I am still debating/awaiting his approval, but I think it's the winner!" May. 23, 2009:
"When choosing a name for my baby girl in 2005, I was looking for a unique but not off the wall name. I didnt want an everyday name. Right away i fell in love with the name Jaelyn, it had a different spelling (JayLynn) and wanted to change it up a bit. I have never yet meant another person with the name but this site made me realize that it is quite a popular name. I think it is a beautiful name and fits my Jaelyn Marie perfectly and people are constantly commenting on her name." Apr. 12, 2009:
"My name is Jaelyn Rae i love it is very briliant i thank my mother almost every day for such a B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L name i love it i think it is a girls name too. My mom said she actually got it from a boy basketball player Jaylen Rose from the chicago bulls! But she made it special! :)" Apr. 5, 2009:

"My daughter, Jaelyn Niccole, was born in 2002. I originally liked "Jaylee", but her dad did not. It is not used because it is a combination of any names important to us...we just liked it. Like another post here, we also call Jaelyn "JJ" and "J-Bird". It has now morphed into "Bird". And we also have people pronounce it as 2 separate names, "Jay Lynn". That bugs me too." Jan. 1, 2009:
"My daughter was born four days ago and her name is Jaelyn Ameerah. We were hoping for a boy this time and his name was going to be Jaeden because I feel in love with that name years ago. We found out it was a girl and we knew we had to incorporate the name some how so we chose Jaelyn. We're so happy with our choice." Dec. 31, 2008:

"Jaelyn, beautiful, cannot believe more girls/ladies are not named Jaelyn. We named our little girl Jaelyn Bree, nine weeks old. Some people pronounce it wrong and she hasn't been around long enough for too many to start spelling it. Just think of saying it like JAY LYNN, but don't emphasis on the LYNN part of the name. Since we named our daughter Jaelyn we have found it a more common name than we thought and alot of men are named Jaelyn but it's usually spelled differently. I would definitley recommend this name to anyone, but I believe it's more of a feminine name." Oct. 11, 2006:

"My 6 onth old daughter born June 2010 is named Jaelyn Nicole. I also find it extremely frustrating when people emphasize the name. When I picked this name I thought I had an original, I combined my husbands name, James with my MIL Linda.

"On December 3, 2000 my daughter Jaelyn was born. When we were thinking of names for our baby, I wanted something different. Our son's name is Jaemen and I want her name to match that so, the name Jaelyn made sense. I thought her name was unique and it fits her. She is a true Jaelyn. It seems to me in my experience, that this name has picked up fast. I even have some family members who have named their son Jalen." Dec. 26, 2010:
"My husband and I plan to name our daughter Jaelyn. I also thought that we were picking an "original" name. My name is Janet and I wanted to pick a name as close to my name as possible. Even though the name isn't as original as I though, I still absolutely love it!" Dec. 1, 2010:
"My name is Jaelyn and was born in 1974. I have yet to meet another Jaelyn. I do hate the Lynn so many people will say and I have to tell folks it's in-jail backwards. Helps people remember my name otherwise people always had a hard time remembering. But yes I loved having a unique name." Nov. 10, 2010:
"My 6 month old daughter was born on March 27 2010, the same day as my birthday, and I named her Jaelyn-Briana because I read somewhere that jaelyn means ambitious and I myself am a very ambitious person. I also think that she has a very unique name and I think she will love it." Oct. 5, 2010:
