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.
