Jayleen Origin and Meaning

The name Jayleen is a girl's name of English origin meaning "pretty jaybird".

Jayleen is one of those modern creations that could be seen as an attempt to be trendy yet retro at the same time. Part Jaylee, part Aileen, Jayleen could be an honor for a Jane or a James, an Eileen, or a Darlene.

While Jayleen has technically been used since the '50s, it really caught on in the 2000s. It overtook Jaylene in the Top 1000 in 2008 and has remained as the preferred choice ever since. It peaked in 2013 when it reached the Top 400, but has since declined to the #700s.

For something truly retro, Janie, Aileen, Jolene, Justine, Geraldine, or Janine might appeal as names with a similar sound, while Jaylani, Aylin, Abilene, Lakelynn, Jazmin, and Jazlyn are similar recent stars.
