Alline is in Origin.

Alline is a rare English feminine given name that likely arose as a variant of several closely related names. Many bearers use it as a respelling of Aline, the French/Scots form of Adeline, from Germanic adal "noble." Others treat it as aligned with the American -ine/-ene family, Alene and Allene, names shaped by Eileen/Aileen (Irish Eibhlin from medieval Aveline or, by conflation, Helen). Because of these strands, Alline most often carries the sense "noble," with a secondary association to "light" if traced to Helen.

Documented chiefly in late 19th to mid 20th century U.S. records, especially in the South and Midwest, Alline never became common and is now an uncommon vintage choice. Variants and cognates include Aline, Alene, Allene, Adeline, Adela, Alina, Alena, and Eileen/Aileen. Short forms include Allie and Lina; parallel international forms include Adele, Adelina, and Alina.
