An uncommon Scottish Gaelic pick — distinctive and rare.
Lynnox is a boy's and girl's baby name of American origin, a creative variant of Lennox, from the Scottish place name Leamhnachd meaning 'place of elms' — the elm-covered hills of western Scotland.
Lynnox combines the elegant Scottish heritage of Lennox with a distinctive LYNN- opening. Lennox itself has been rising rapidly in U.S. naming, carried by boxer Lennox Lewis and an aristocratic Scottish heritage. Lynnox gives it a more unusual, personalized form.
Lynnox has 13+ years of history in the U.S., first appearing in 2012.
