What is the meaning of the name Arleyne ?

The baby name Arleyne is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced AR-leen (/ˈɑr.liːn/),AR-layn (/ˈɑr.leɪn/).

Arleyne is English, Irish, Scottish in Origin.

Arleyne is a rare English feminine name, an embellished spelling of Arlene/Arline created in the 20th century. Its deeper roots lead back through Arline to Irish Eileen/Aileen (Eibhlín), which in turn derives from the Norman French Aveline. Because of this lineage, Arleyne is often explained with two overlapping senses: “little hazel” or “hazelnut” (from French aveline) and “desired” or “wished‑for,” a traditional gloss attached to Eibhlín.

Names in this cluster rose with the American fashion for -lene and -line endings between the 1920s and 1950s; while Arlene ranked widely during that era, Arleyne itself appears only sporadically in records, lending it a vintage yet distinctive feel today. Variants and close relatives include Arlene, Arleen, Arline, Arlyne, Arlena, and Arlina; related cognates are Eileen, Aileen, and Evelyn. Nicknames include Arley, Arlie, Lea, and Lina. Pronunciation typically follows ar-LEEN or ar-LINE, depending on family tradition.
