History & Origin

Evaleen is one of the many early-century spellings of Eveline and Evaline, cousins of Evelyn. The family traces to the Norman Aveline and was widely felt to echo Eve, 'life.' The -een ending gave the name a sweet, singsong close that suited the taste of its day.

It was never common, given to only about fifteen girls a year at its high in the early nineteen-twenties. A girl named Evaleen then would belong to a great-grandparent's generation now.

Did you know? Evaleen shares its family with Evelyn, all of them elaborations that popular usage tied to Eve, the Hebrew name for 'life.'
