History & Origin

Ebelin is a Spanish-influenced respelling of Evelin, a form of Evelyn from the Norman Aveline. The b reflects the Spanish merging of b and v sounds.

It appears from about 1982 and, unusually for this group, kept rising to peak near 2005 before easing, tracking the growth of Latino communities. It has stayed rare on the national scale.

Did you know? In Spanish the letters b and v sound nearly identical, so Evelin and Ebelin are heard the same way - the b spelling simply writes the name as a Spanish speaker says it.
