Evalynne is a modern, elaborately spelled variant of Evelyn, which itself originated as an English surname derived from the Norman French female name Aveline. Aveline is a diminutive of Avila, a name of uncertain meaning, but often linked to the Germanic element 'avi' (desired) or the Latin 'avellana' (hazelnut). The name Evelyn became popular in the 19th century and has since spawned numerous spelling variations, including Evalynne.
