Evalina is a graceful variant of Evelina, rooted in the Old French Aveline, itself a diminutive whose exact meaning is a charming mystery.

This delicate name drifted through medieval France, gaining favor for its melodic sound before quietly arriving in English-speaking lands by the late 19th century.
