homelynn.

Brit.

/ˈhɒməlɪn/, U.S.

/ˈhɑməˌlɪn/

Forms: 1600s 1800s– homelyn, 1700s homlyn, 1800s homerling, 1800s homlin, 1800s hommelin (Scottish).

Origin: Of unknown origin.

Etymology: Origin unknown. No similar fish name is attested in other Germanic languages. Compare later home n.² J. Jamieson Etymol. Dict. Sc. Lang. Suppl. (1825) (at Hommelin) tentatively suggests a Scandinavian origin, citing Old Icelandic hamla to mutilate (see hamble v.) as etymon, from the fish's multitude of spines. However, the formal similarity appears to be coincidental. With the form homerling compare -ling suffix¹.

The spotted ray, Raja montagui (formerly called Raia maculata); also more fully homelyn ray.
