Charlynne, of French origin, is an uncommon yet captivating feminine given name. It is derived from the French name Charlotte, which means 'freeholder' or 'small and delicate'. The variant spelling of Charlynne lends it a unique touch while still maintaining its root's elegance. This name gained popularity in the late 20th century but remains less common than its source name, allowing those named Charlynne to stand out.
"Charlynne saw a peak in popularity during the late 1940s to early 1950s, with seven babies named Charlynne born in 1948, followed by five births each in 1950 and 1957. However, its usage has since declined, as indicated by only five births in 1967."
