Aleen Origin and Meaning

The name Aleen is a girl's name.

Aleen is a feminine name with multiple potential origins. It can be considered a variant of Aileen or Eileen, which derive from the Gaelic name Eibhlín, a form of Helen meaning 'torch' or 'light.' Alternatively, it may be related to Alene or Alene, coming from Greek roots meaning 'sunlight' or 'shining one.' The name has a delicate, melodic quality with its soft sounds and flowing pronunciation. Aleen saw modest popularity in the United States during the early to mid-20th century but has become less common in recent decades. This relative rarity now gives it a vintage charm that might appeal to parents seeking a distinctive yet accessible name with historical roots and pleasant sonics.
