It is a familiar choice in Ireland and Northern Ireland, where it flits in and out of the Top 100, while in England and Wales, it was a Top 1000 choice back in the 2000s.

Aislin is a feminine name of Irish Gaelic origin, derived from 'aisling' meaning 'dream' or 'vision.' It's sometimes anglicized as Ashlyn, Ashlynn, or Aislinn. In Irish literary tradition, an aisling was a poetic genre featuring Ireland personified as a woman. The name gained popularity outside Ireland in the late 20th century as interest in Celtic names increased. Aislin combines melodic sounds with meaningful cultural connections, making it appealing to parents seeking names with both beauty and substance. While less common than some other Irish names like Erin or Shannon, it has maintained steady usage particularly in Irish diaspora communities and among those drawn to names with Celtic heritage.
