Collyn

Oh dear... Oh dear... Why did they have to ruin the name of Collin. At least the silver lining is that it can also be gender-neutral.According to the USA Social Security Administration, 17 boys and 13 girls were recorded with the name Collyn in 1994.

How is this a diminutive of Nicholas for boys? I look at the "Diminutives" part of Nicholas' page.

Oh dear- just why? Colleen is already pretty, but someone had to make a terrible spelling out of it. It looks like it should be pronounced "Colin".

Collyn looks more like a feminine form of Collin to me - a rather ugly one. I don't like it.

The way it's spelled, it looks to me more like it ought to be a spelling variant of Colin.
