Name Meaning

In the Middle Ages this represented a contracted form of Adeline . In modern use it is either a revival of this or a respelling of Aileen . In Scotland and Ireland it has sometimes been chosen as representing an Anglicized spelling of the Gaelic vocabulary word àlainn (Scottish), álainn (Irish), meaning ‘lovely’.
