Khilynn is a modern invented name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 2011. It is a relatively rare name, ranking 11,932nd in 2025, with about 1 in 229,610 newborns receiving it. Its usage has been rising since 2011, and it reached its peak popularity in 2017. The name is almost exclusively given to girls. Composed of the trendy 'Khi' prefix (as in Khloe) and the common 'lynn' suffix, Khilynn fits a pattern of contemporary American coinages that emphasize melodic and feminine sounds.
