Around the world, 德林 (德林 
, Delin 
, Derlyn 
) is a common predominantly male, but very infrequently female first name. The given name 德林 is habitual in China, where it is quite a rare principally masculine, but scarcely female name, Nicaragua, where it is quite a rare epicene name, and the Dominican Republic. Measured by absolute frequency, it is the most numerous in China, Philippines, and India. Very seldom, 德林 is the last name as well as the forename.
