History & Origin
Earlyne is a feminine coinage from Earl, an Old English word for nobleman that became a first name, dressed with the -ine or -yne ending common in early-twentieth-century girl names. It sits beside Earline and Earlene as spelling variants and carries the same dignified, old-fashioned warmth. It was most used in the early decades of the century.
Earlyne was never a common name. It appeared in United States records only in small numbers, given to fewer than twenty girls a year at its peak in the early twentieth century.
