Try typing this name before you give it to your child. I am 36 years old and have had my name mispronounced and misspelled daily throughout my life. Most people say a soft a instead of hard a and they usually try to write it like this 'kayln'. My mother combined Kelly and Lyn to obtain Kalyn. In the past, it was compared to Kathryn (meaning 'pure') for origination.
