Lynnon is a modern coinage, first recorded in the United States in 2014. It appears to be a creative respelling or elaboration of the name Lynn, which itself derives from Welsh 'llyn' meaning 'lake' or from the English word 'lin' meaning 'flax' or 'pool'. The suffix '-non' is a trendy variation seen in other contemporary names like Lennon and Kinnon.
