History & Origin

Ireene is an early-1900s variant spelling of Irene, the Greek name for 'peace'. Irene was widely popular in that era, and small spelling flourishes like a doubled e appeared here and there; this one stayed very rare, and its meaning is identical to the parent.

It was never common, given to only about sixteen girls a year at its brief peak in the early nineteen-twenties. A girl named Ireene then would be a great-grandmother today.

Did you know? Ireene simply doubles the e of Irene, whose Greek root eirene, 'peace', made Eirene the ancient goddess of peace.
