Number of errors in this entry. Language origin of Emlyn is Welsh not English cf. Newcastle Emlyn (Castell Newydd Emlyn) and the Emlyn district in West Wales. In Welsh it is also a boys name. It is only the US that uses it, arguably incorrectly, as a girls name.
The recorded pronunciation is also terrible.
