Meaning & Origins
Modern use of this as both a boy's and a girl's name derives from a transferred use of an English surname, from the Norman female name Aveline, an elaborated form of Ava. At present it is used more frequently as a girl's name, and is also found as a variant Anglicization of Irish Éibhleann or Aibhilín (see also Evlin).
