History & Origin

Timolin flashed and faded fast. The records show it in the mid nineteen-sixties, its tiny high near 1965, almost exactly when the Cole twins were young children in the public eye.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at most, and its window was just a few years wide. A girl named Timolin then would be in her early sixties today. The name reads as a celebrity-inspired coinage rather than one with a rooted meaning.

Did you know? Timolin Cole and her twin sister Casey were born to Nat King Cole and Maria Cole in 1961; the brief flicker of the name in the records lines up closely with the family's fame.
