History & Origin

Novaleen is a modern American build on Nova, from Latin novus, 'new' — the same word astronomers used for a star that suddenly blazes into view. The -leen ending, in the Kathleen and Marleen family, softens it. A new name from documented parts (said 'NOH-vuh-leen').

It appears only very rarely for girls in the U.S. Very rare, starry, and modern.

Did you know? A nova is a star that suddenly flares bright — astronomers borrowed the Latin word for 'new' because such a star seemed to appear from nowhere. Novaleen carries that flash of light (said 'NOH-vuh-leen').
