Evelyn (name)
Evelyn is a given name in the English language, where it can be used as a first name or a surname.. The name originally was used as a surname, which derived from Aveline, a feminine Norman French diminutive of the name Ava.. "from the Norman female name Aveline, an elaborated form of >Ava." Ava itself is a hypocoristic Germanic name, of uncertain origin. Evelyn is also sometimes used as an Anglicisation of the Irish ''Aibhilín'' or ''Éibhleann''.

The name "Norman French" is sometimes used to describe not only the Norman language, but also the administrative languages of '' Anglo-Norman'' and '' Law French'' used in England. For the most part, the written forms of Norman and modern French are mutually intelligible. This intelligibility was largely caused by the Norman language's planned adaptation to French orthography (writing).
