History & Origin

Alle is a trim spelling of Allie or Ally, the affectionate short form shared by Alice and Alexandra. Through those parents it carries meanings of 'noble' and 'defender,' and its spare, four-letter look also fits the modern taste for simple, understated girls' names.

Alle was never common, given to only about fourteen girls a year around 2010 and staying rare on either side. A girl named Alle then is a teenager today, her clipped name a small, current spin on the long-loved Allie.

Did you know? Alle packs a lot into four letters: read as Allie, it points to Alice, 'noble,' or Alexandra, 'defender of man,' two grand old names in miniature.
