The term " allophone " was coined by Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s.
In doing so, he placed a cornerstone in consolidating early phoneme theory.
The term was popularized by G. L. Trager and Bernard Bloch in a 1941 paper on English phonology and went on to become part of standard usage within the American structuralist tradition.
