Arlyne Origin and Meaning

The name Arlyne is a girl's name.

Arlyne is a feminine name that emerged as a variant spelling of Arlene or Arline. These names likely derived from the masculine name Arlin, which has Germanic origins meaning "pledge" or "oath." Another theory suggests Celtic roots related to a pledge or promise. Arlyne gained modest popularity in the United States during the early to mid-20th century, particularly in the 1920s and 1930s, but has since become uncommon. The distinctive 'y' spelling gives it a slightly more elaborate appearance than Arlene. The name carries a vintage charm with its soft sounds and feminine ending, evoking a sense of classic elegance from earlier decades while remaining relatively rare in contemporary use.
