Aldin is an English surname, derived from the Anglo-Saxon elements eald, meaning "old", and wine, meaning "friend".[1]
It may also appear as a representation of the second half of Muslim names ending in ad-Din. Probably arising from this, it has become used as a male Bosnian given name. It may refer to:
