Meaning:
|
Although some link this name to "Adaline" or "Adelaide",
the
true origin of this modern name is more likely what is found in
"Marilyn" and "Arilyn/Aralyn", or "Madison" and "Adison" where a
popular name is modified by dropping the first letter to give the same
sound, yet in hopes of not being as commonly found. The juxtoposition
of letters and changes in spelling, thus bring about a name that has no
true meaning.
