Reply to: Help with my name- Magelyn by Mage
Mage looks like a shortened form of Margaret (click link), and Margaret of course means pearl

Lyn is just Lyn or Lynn (click link)

The problem with Lynn is that it has many possible sources
It could be

Welsh: Lake
Spanish: Beautiful
A Germanic Element: Soft, tender
Another Germanic Element: Serpent or Dragon
or just a short form of names ending in Lynn.

An expert may be able to provide more insight
