Karlijn

Karlijn is a Dutch feminine given name derived from the Germanic element karl, meaning "free man" or "man." It is the Dutch feminine form of Karl, belonging to the same family as Caroline, Karoline, and Karolina, which all trace back through Latin and French forms of the name. The name shares its ultimate root with Charles and its many European equivalents, reflecting a widespread medieval tradition of honoring the Frankish king Charlemagne and his legacy.
