Meaning & origin
Adlene is a rare girl's name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1905, a time when many similar -lene names were in vogue. Its peak year came in 1909, but even then it did not crack the top 1000. Since then, its usage has remained stable but extremely low, never reaching one in a million births. The name may be a variant of Adeline or a compound of Ada and the fashionable suffix -lene, both suggesting the meaning 'noble'. While top states for the name have not been recorded due to its scarcity, its vintage charm aligns with the revival of names like Adeline and Adalyn today.
