In the oldest Welsh sources Merlin is Myrddin, and in some Latin sources he appears as Merdinus. (The probable story of why his name was changed to Merlin is highly amusing, but unsuitable for a family website).
Myrddin's name may be connected with Caerfyrddin(the City of Merlin) - which is Carmarthen in English:- in which case the derivation of the name would likely to be Hill beside the sea (Maridunum or Mor-Dwn).
But this is largely speculation, Myrddin's name has no certain meaning beyond itself.
