Joline
Joline Origin and Meaning
Joline is a feminine name with French influences, likely derived from 'Jolene' or serving as a variation of 'Jolene' without the final 'e'. The name ultimately connects to the French word 'joli' meaning 'pretty' or 'beautiful'. Joline gained some recognition through Dolly Parton's famous 1973 song 'Jolene', though this spelling variation has remained less common. The name has a musical, flowing quality with its soft consonants and long vowel sounds. While never reaching high rankings on popularity charts, Joline has maintained consistent if limited usage, particularly in the United States during the 1950s-1970s. It offers a classic yet uncommon choice for parents seeking a name with gentle feminine qualities and subtle French character without being difficult to pronounce or spell.
