Does anyone know the meaning of the Filipino name Ofalyn?

I've always wanted to know the meaning of my name and my mom doesn't know. She was just looking for an "O" name that was Filipino lol. And if you find it online, can you send me a link? Thanks.

Does anyone know the meaning of the Filipino name Ofalyn?
I think Ofalyn is a beautiful name for a beautiful person inside and out.
Reply:Here is a guess, please do not take offense:





Ofalyn came from 2 words: of %26amp; alin.





of: English preposition;


alyn: from the Filipino word "alin", meaning which.





Combined, the name means: of which.

Reply:I think it came from the name "Ophelia" from the Shakespeare play, Macbeth(?). I think Ophelia in the play drowned herself in a pond. You can look up the meaning of that name in the internet. Your parents probably Filipinized it by adding a "-lyn".





Ex.





Emmalyn


Jennilyn


etc.
Reply:Most Filipino names are combination of Mother + Fathers name or abbreviation. Probably your mothers name ends with "lyn", so we need to solve the "Ofa". Don't tell me your mom forgot which man is your father :-)





Might be, it was the combination of three names "o, f and a" hahaha get what I mean?
