Your name of Alyn gives you independence and determination. Under circumstances when others are expressive, you feel inferior because you recognize your inability to communicate your deeper thoughts and feelings. You express yourself in as few words as possible and often choose silence rather than idle chatter. Nothing intimidates you once you make up your mind. You have a respect for all living things and could have a keen interest in biology or working with animals. You work best alone making your own decisions as it is not always easy for you to respond to the advice and direction of others as you feel the need to be in control. You are not easily influenced by the opinions and actions of others and therefore can be depended upon for assistance. Lavish affection tends to embarrass you, yet often you desire to be natural, and to seek affection and understanding from those closest to you. You feel this separation from others and would give anything to be always lighthearted and friendly instead of serious and shy. Living much within your own thoughts and finding it challenging to communicate easily with others, you are, at times, too candid and honest in your assessment of situations.
