Loch or lake of the pool
Locklyn is a modern Americanized spelling of the Scottish name Lachlan. It combines the Gaelic word 'loch', meaning lake or fjord, with a suffix that suggests a body of water or pool. While traditionally a masculine name in Scotland, this specific spelling is used almost exclusively for girls in the United States.
