I voted for Ava, because to me it is the only one on your list that flows well with the mn Lynn. I really like Kendall, but the L's in Kendall and Lynn run together when I tried to say it. Also Morgan and Peyton the n's run together IMO with Lynn, so I voted for Ava, which flows well.

Kendall - Love Kendall, but with mn Lynn the L's kind of run together. Its not the graetest combo, but I do like Kendall a lot
Rori- prefer Rory spelling which is more commonly known. Its okay, I do prefer it as a nn (Lorelei?)
Ava- beautiful, but SO popular. I would advise against it
Mason - This is a boy's name, VERY masculine.
Morgan - Okay. I REALLY prefer it for boys though and Morgan Lynn isn't the best combo since they both end in the same sound, but I would rather hear Morgan on a girl over Mason
Charli - cute as a nn for Charlotte. Charlotte Lynn nn Charli would be adorable! I don't like it on its own though, she needs more options
Peyton- Like Morgan, Peyton and Lynn end in the same sound so its not the greatest combo.
Lara- I LOVE Lara, but Lara Lynn is a bit singsongy. If you don't mind that, it is very nice
Emma- pretty, but popular
Emily- pretty, but a bit cutesy and WAAAY popular (#1 I believe)

I really love Charlotte nn Charli for you. It goes the best with mn Lynn and is very pretty. I also like Kendall and Lara, even though they don't work the best with Lynn as a mn.

I agree with some of the pps' comments.

Lara, Emma and Emily are fine, but they just don't sound right with Lynn.

Charli and Rori are cute nns, but not given names. Maybe you'd like Charlotte, Charlize, Chara, Chandra (Shan-dra), Lorelei, Aurora, etc., with one of these as a nn? Aurora Lynn, nn Rori, would probably be my favorite. ;)

Peyton and Kendall I don't mind on a girl, but they just dont' work with Lynn either (for reasons others have mentioned -- the same ending/beginning sounds). Morgan is fine on its own (although I prefer the very-similar Morrigan for a girl), but it has the same flow problems with the mn. Mason is just completely masculine, so I don't get the appeal unless you're hoping she DOES become a mason (which is fine if that's the case, but I'm doubting the meaning of the name is actually being taken into account here).

The only name on this list that seems to work with Lynn is Ava. If popularity's not an issue, go for it. ;) If it's still not your favorite, I'd keep looking.

I'm going to reply instead of vote - if Lynn is a must (awfully common, passe middle name if you ask me) then some of these just don't work with Lynn

Kendall - Kendall Lynn - Kendall's ending L runs into Lynn's starting L - nix
Rori - cute - Rori Lynn, just don't see Rori on a girl, although I realize it happens
Ava - Ava Lynn - good flow - name getting too high up on the charts
Mason - for a girl! do you know what a Mason is - a concrete/brick layer - rarely women
Morgan - Morgan Lynn, OK flow, although unisex, this has crossed over to all girl now, OK

Charli - Charli Lynn - the Li part goes right into Lynn, doesn't sound right, and WHY would you want to name a little girl Charli - the Charlotte's nn Charli trend is bad enough

Peyton - unisex, tilts still more heavily to the boys, Peyton Lynn just doesn't flow
Lara - Lara Lynn - it almost sounds like all one name, don't like the both L's

Emma - Emma Lynn - also almost sounds like all one name - too plain of a middle for the very plain and ultra-popular Emma

Emily - the Ly part going straight into another L Emily Lynn, just doesn't work

good luck
