"Of the moon"

From Turkish

Aylin means moon halo — from the Turkish. A halo around the moon is one of nature's most ethereal phenomena: light bending through ice crystals to create a ring of luminescence. Aylin sounds like moonlight becoming visible: two syllables of Turkish astronomy, lunar halos, and the most poetic celestial meaning in any language.
