What is the meaning of the name Evelin ?

The baby name Evelin is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈɛvəlɪn/ (EV-ə-lin),/ɛvəˈliːn/ (ev-ə-LEEN).

Evelin is French, Norman in Origin.

Evelin is a modern international variant of Evelyn, which began as an English surname from the Norman French Aveline, itself a medieval diminutive of Ava of Germanic origin. As a given name it was unisex in Britain from the 17th century and borne by men into the 20th (e.g., novelist Evelyn Waugh), though in most countries today it is primarily feminine. The spelling Evelin is common in Hungary, Estonia, and parts of Latin America and the Balkans, and occurs in both feminine and, in some Slavic contexts, masculine use.

Because its roots trace to Ava, the meaning is debated; scholars consider it uncertain, but it is often interpreted as "wished-for" and is sometimes associated by folk etymology with Eve ("life"). Close variants and cognates include Evelyn, Eveline, Evelyne, Evelina, Aveline/Avelina, Evalyn, and Evelynn. Related short forms include Eve and Evie, with Lynn/Lin also appearing through the spelling.
