I don't really like it. Would rather use it in name that originally has -lyn / -lynn end (e.g. Evelyn) or as alternative spelling (e.g. Madelyn).

---

(not from masculine name)
I like Marilyn.
Rosalyn, Jessalyn, Annalyn are ok.

---

For "lynn" versions of English male names I like:

---

Laurelyn (Lauren)
Henrilynn (Henry)
Ivalyn (Ivan)
Victoralyn (Victor)
Alexalyn (Alexander)
Stefalyn (Stefan)
Janlyn (John)
Karlynn / Karelynn (Karl / Karel)
Antalyn (Anton / Antony)
Glorilynn (Glory)

---

I don't know how lynn would would with Felix.
Of those I can tolerate Laurelyn, Ivalyn, Victoralyn, Alexalyn, Karelynn.

---

Now with relative names:

---

With my father's name it is probably the worst name I have ever seen. Semenlyn. Big nope.

---

With my grandfathers' names,
Yosyflynn - I guess it is ok
Fyodorlynn - no. Using Ukrainian form is it Fedirlynn which is better but no. With English it would be Thealynn and that is tolerable.

---

My dad was named Semen and my grandfathers were Yosyf and Fyodor.

---

For a fantasy story I like Zaralyn.
