Aile is a feminine given name most strongly attested in Estonia. It likely developed as a local variant beside Aili and Aila, which in Finnic naming link either to Helga (Old Norse heilagr, “holy; blessed”) or to the Helen/Eileen line (from Greek Helene, “torch; light”). Thus Aile is read with senses of sanctity or radiance.

Documented in Estonian records since the early 1900s, the name saw modest mid-century use and sporadic revival in contemporary minimalist naming.
