Emberlynn is a modern American blend of Ember, the English word for a glowing "ember" or smoldering coal, with the fashionable -lynn ending seen in Brooklynn and Emmalynn. It has no history before the 21st century, but it rode the same wave as Everly and Oaklynn. Emberlynn had fewer than five births in 2000, climbed from number 1887 in 2015 into the top 1000 in 2021, peaked at number 797 in 2023 and ranks 929th in 2025.
