Means "good news" from Greek ευ "good" and αγγελμα (angelma) "news, message". It was (first?) used by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow in his epic poem 'Evangeline' (1847). Evangeline originates in Greek language and means "great news". The name was popularized by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow in his 1847 epic poem Evangeline, A Tale of Acadie. Nowadays, it is not as popular as it used to, especially in the United States.
