The following is a brief definition offered by the people at "Kabalarian Philosophy":

"KeriLynn":

"The name of KeriLynn contains within it an intense emotional power that could drive you to put forth great effort to accomplish your ambitions and to do something noteworthy and worthwhile. There are humanitarian ideals in this name, making you feel the urge to champion the cause of the downtrodden, the victims of circumstances and injustices. However, it is difficult for you to materialize your ideals because of a restless, unsettled feeling which causes you never to know just what it is that you should be working toward, and the very intensity of your nature makes systematic concentration and application a challenge. You can have intensely contrasting feelings toward people, either you are fiercely loyal or extremely intolerant. There is rarely a happy medium in your feelings. Consequently, you experience many disappointments in people, tragedy, and the loss of the very things for which you may be intensely striving. Bitter experiences could make you cynical, critical, and argumentative. You find it difficult to see the brighter or humorous side of a situation. This name makes you nervous and highly strung, causing tension affecting your nervous system and solar plexus."

Now, Keri-Lynn on "KeriLynn":

"First, '...there is rarely a happy medium in your feelings...': That's because I learned the hard way a long time ago that when you travel down 'the middle of the road' long enough...sooner or later, you get smashed. Second, '...Consequently, you experience many disappointments...': Doesn't that hold true for MOST people who are striving? I mean, think about it...'horrible things' rarely happen to people who are just standing still. Its like a video game...people only shoot and go after a target that MOVES. AND...When I move, some people tend to get jealous. Third, '...You find it difficult to see the brighter/humerous side...': Say what? Oh, please. Give me something worth laughing about, and generally, I will! I even laugh at myself. Sick jokes...like ones on homeless people, "trailor trash", people who are starving, etc. don't sit well with me. Maybe, its because I AM HUMAN. Sick jokes are out, and mean people...well, quite simply...they SUCK. Any questions?"

This one's for all the "Keri-Lynn's" of the world. Keri-Lynn has researched this; and this is what she has found. Enjoy.

The name "Keri-Lynn" is derived from the combination of two names..."Keri" (& derivatives) and "Lynn" (& derivatives).

The first, "Keri" (& derivatives), finds its original definition based on the County of Kerry in Ireland. According to one of her friends in the industry (he's from Dublin), "Kerry" in the original, Gaelic, Irish text means "His Kingdom". This is due to the intense, green color of the grass, the incredible seaport activity of merchants flowing in and out, bringing with it intense industry growth and expansion to the economy. The definition was so named "His Kingdom" because the County "Kerry" was sometimes called "Heaven's Gate". Being a natural seaport and safe harbor, nothing was imported or exported (during earlier times) except through "Kerry". Herein lies great power, trust, and goodness overflowing. The second, "Lynn" (& derivatives): The original definition means "from a cascade or a waterfall"...meaning to give rebirth to (something).

So, the correct meaning of the combination is "To give Rebirth to His Kingdom". It is not, nor should it ever be defined as "the dark one"; which only connotates the opposite of its TRUE meaning. We are glad that Keri-Lynn could finally set the record straight. And now, it's time for all the "Keri-Lynn's" of the world to rejoice.
