Edeline
About Edeline
An Old French variation of the popular Adeline and Adelina, Edeline may appeal to those who want something rare-but-familiar, to anyone looking to honor and Edward or Edith, or to those who want nicknames Edie or Eddie over Addy. Derived from the Germanic adal, it means "noble"
The name has been notably borne by Lady Edeline Strickland (nee Sackville-West), who was the founder of the New South Wales division of the Australian Red Cross back in 1914. She was the inspiration for the names of both the Edeline Islands off the western coast of Australia and for the Lady Edeline ferry. A more recent bearer is fashion designer Edeline Lee.
Pronounced as EHD-UH-LEEN or EHD-uh-lihn, the name has been used sparingly in the US, though it may gain a little more attention after singer Ellie Goulding used it as a middle name in 2026 for her daughter, Iris Edeline.
Pronounced ED-uh-leen.
As of October 2026, Edeline ranked #5011 in US births in 2025 SSA.
