Rauline is in Origin.
Rauline is a rare feminine given name formed with the French -ine suffix from Raoul/Raul, the Romance reflex of Germanic Radulf (rad “counsel” + wulf “wolf”). It therefore carries the sense “wolf counsel” or “wise wolf.” It can also be read as a feminized elaboration of the medieval diminutive Rawlin, itself from Ralph.
Usage is sparse; found sporadically in 19th–20th-century records in France, Quebec, and the United States, likely as a stylish -ine coinage alongside names like Pauline and Jacqueline. Variants and cognates include Raoul, Raúl/Raul, Ralph/Ralf, and the medieval Rawlin; feminine or elaborated forms sometimes seen are Raulina, Raoulina, Rawlina, and Raulene. The name remains uncommon, lending it a distinctive, continental flair while retaining deep, ancient Germanic roots.
