Wow trendy. Way too many n's and y's. That is also not how I thought it was pronounced. I was thinking it was kin-lin, like the syllables rhymed and it sounded kind of like kindling. Not a fan.
A whiskey tango foxtrot for sure, it's like an 8 year old picked the name.
Too many y's, and Kyn is going to be read as "kin" and not "ken". Kenlynn would have been better IMO.
Still not my style though. I would like Kenlan on a boy maybe. Kynlynn and Brylee are both too trendy-looking and won't age well.

Sounds like something a 10 year old would name a doll.
Yikes! Way too many n's. If I wanted to use this name I would spell it Kinlyn though it's still terrible!
👎🏼thumbs down from me
Atrocious.
It's really bad...
First off, Kynlynn is over-the-top, even as a -lyn name. It'd look strange on paper due to the letters being repeated. I also don't understand the pronunciation - why isn't it spelt as Kenlyn(n)? Also, where does 'Kyn' come from?
The pronunciation of Brylee clashes with Kynlynn and the name itself doesn't flow well.

Don't like at all, I thought it would be pronounced kin lin
This feels like a D-List celebrity baby name from 2002. I'm almost getting warm nostalgia from it or something. Brings me right back! I'm mesmerized by all the Ys and N's.
It's giving me a strong rural vibe too. Years ago, I went to a huge rural exhibition with very young, very rich, FFA fluffy show-cow, barrel racing type competitors and they all had names like this.
I also do not understand how Kyn turns into Ken but maybe it's just my accent that wouldn't work well with it.

My thoughts
That isn't my style. But I don't find it as annoying as others in the same style. I think Kynlynn is less annoying than Kynsey or Kynley.
I don't understand pronouncing it Ken-lynn but spelling it Kyn-. If Ken sounds just like Kin, I don't like the rhyming syllables. It seems hard to say.
To me Kyn rhymes with lynn, and Ken sounds different. I would prefer the sound of Ken-lynn over Kin-lin, for sure. But I would spell it Kenlyn. If it were Kenlyn, I might say it's actually kind of nice, for names in this style.
I would not want to have to sign the name Kynlynn in cursive; I bet it's kind of hard to do. Lynn's my middle name so I would know a bit.
The Y in Brylee being pronounced differently from the Y in Kynlynn bothers me a bit, aesthetically. The overall similar style of the names makes the combo a bit forgettable. But it does not sound actually bad. Brylee is much nicer than other spellings of that name imo.
Congrats and best wishes to your co-worker and her daughter, regardless.

Actually, I feel like Kynlynn is mostly some of the easiest cursive letters.
The double N. It's not easy imo to write 2 well formed n's quickly
Awful.
