Comments for the name Camryn

So much for "Camshròn"; the original Gaelic has been mangled. And this name, when you know that it means "crooked nose," isn't so flattering.

Apolla DuBaer is one of the T*Witches, and Camryn Barnes is her name that she took when she was adopted.

Camryn Manheim is an actress known for her portrayal of lawyer Ellenor Frutt on the T.V. show "The Practice."

Former Young and the Restless actress, Camryn Grimes, bears this name.

I love the spelling of this name. I don't care for Cameron but I think Camryn looks really pretty.

A horrible butchering of a once decent name that is now being overused.

I could not agree more with Missy. This name looks dreadful, tacky, and trendy. Trendy, insubstantial names drive me mad.

Are parents too lazy spell and pronounce the original or do they think that they are being "unique" by spelling it somewhat differently? Look at how popular that the name is; how is a name unique when every fifth girl bears it? And, parents, your daughter will not always be a child; she will grow up and she will be left with a ridiculous name that only suits a little girl.

The dignified, elegant name of Caimshròin has been butchered and a mockery has been made of it. Whoever thought of using this name should be forced to take a Respect For Language/Names course.

Jeez people it's just a name and in my opinion Cameron has not been "butchered", the spelling has just been changed to better suit someone's liking. Like mine - I love Camryn, but only on a girl.

I think this name should strictly be:
Cameron: boy
Camryn: girl
It was the way it was supposed to be anyway. So choose this instead of Cameron for a girl.

I don't like Cameron for a girl and I don't understand why this name leaves out the -e so I use Cameryn. I use it for a character in one of my stories.

I like this spelled with an 'e' for a girl.
Cameron seems more masculine.
Camryn seems unbalanced.

Cameryn is cute and feminine, plus I adore names ending in "yn" (i.e. Madelyn, Raelyn, etc).

I agree that it should have an E. Cameryn looks so cute. I love this name (Cameryn) but I hate Kamryn and Camryn. It looks like a spelling mistake! Ugh. And I also don't like this spelling cause it looks like Carmen, one of my least favorite names.

I do like the spelling CamEryn. The boys name is spelt Cameron so the girls name should be Cameryn not Camryn, it looks wrong.

I hate this name. It is so tacky and unfeminine. Cameron doesn't even sound like a girls' name (not even with this spelling).

No offense, but you'd have to be pretty dumb to name your kid a misspelled Scottish surname.
