History & Origin

Evalene is a vintage elaboration. Behind it stands Eva, from Hebrew Chavah, 'life' — the name of the first woman — and the Norman-rooted Evelyn. The -lene tail was a favorite of early twentieth-century America, giving the name a soft, front-porch quality (said 'EV-uh-leen').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. today. Rare, vintage, and gentle.

Did you know? Evalene turns up in American records from the early twentieth century — Eva ('life') stretched with a lilting -lene ending, in the same fashion that gave us Charlene and Marlene (said 'EV-uh-leen').
