Lyndsay (name)
Lyndsay is a popular first name in many English-speaking countries, particularly Scotland.
It can be either a girl's or boy's name. It is a variation of many other types of spellings of the name Lyndsay, including the more well-known spelling Lindsay, as well as "Linsey", "Lynsey" and "Lyndsy".
==Origins==
The old Roman name for the city of Lincoln was Lindum Colonia, a name which harked back to the older Celtic name of "Lindon" which meant "the pool". Thus the etymology of the name is inextricably linked with the city of Lincoln in the UK. It is widely thought to originate from a twelfth-century family name in Lincolnshire, England, most notably Sir Walter de Lindeseya, a Norman knight who accompanied King David I upon his return to Scotland in 1124.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rampantscotland.com/clans/blclanlindsay.htm )〕
The replacement of the "i" by a "y" is a matter of spelling preference, since in English both create the same pronunciation of the name. This may be chosen for either the aesthetic appeal of the overall word shape the usage of the "y" creates, or be connected with its increasing use as female name.
