Aislinge is Irish in Origin.
Aislinge is an Irish Gaelic feminine name derived from aisling, meaning “dream” or “vision,” and by extension a poetic or prophetic vision. The form Aislinge reflects a historical case ending found in older Irish manuscripts (the genitive of aisling), which helped popularize the word through the celebrated Aisling poetic genre of the 17th–18th centuries, where Ireland appears in a visionary encounter as a woman foretelling renewal.
As a given name, Aislinge is rare but intelligibly Irish, adopted in modern times alongside more common spellings. Closest variants include Aisling and Aislinn/Aislín, with anglicized or phonetic forms such as Aishling, Ashling, and the related Ashlyn (often influenced by Ashley + Lynn). Usage grew in Ireland and the diaspora from the late 20th century during the Gaelic cultural revival. The name carries literary, romantic overtones of inspiration, imagination, and hopeful foresight.
Aislinge turns up in none of the birth registries or name datasets we cover. Most often that means a rare name, a regional or heritage one, or a recent coinage. Either way, it's a name very few children share.
