The name Glynis gained prominence during the 19th century but remains relatively uncommon today, making it an intriguing choice for parents seeking a name with historical roots yet contemporary rarity.
The name Glynis was not particularly popular during the years 1961 and 1963, with only five babies named Glynis each year. This resulted in a total of ten newborns with this name over these two years combined.
