Typical of fads of the twenties the (Lindy Hop) was a popular Dance that was named in (honor) of the airman who had nothing to do with it. It was one of those fads, at any rate it was popular well into the thirties. There was, one might add, a rival ( Earhart Hop) named after Amelia that failed to catch the popular fancy.

Lindy was a popular name in the 1950-60s. The name "Lindy" is Latin. Lindy means beautiful; pretty; sweet. Lindy is another name for Linda, Melinda, and Belinda. My name is spelled like this: Lindy. Lindy is the most popular way to spell it. It is the most popular way to spell it because of a dance called the "Lindy-Hop." I do not know the specifics of the dance so you should look it up. The dance was probably invented for Charles Lindbergh, an aviator. He was nick-named "Lucky Lindy". So it all began with Lindbergh. That's your answer.
No. the airman was (honored) by the Lindy Hop- which was some type of Dance. he had no connection with it, it was just a trend. may have had something to do with ( after all NX-2ll flight took 32 hours minimal) Marathon dance endurance contests?
Her name was not Linda. Lady Lindy was a pun on Charles Lindbergh- the aviator of Spirit of St. Louis fame. She was a lady- and a famous pilot- so the two terms were coupled. No direct connection with the Lindy Hop - a type of dance. (but that was also named in(honor) of the airman!
