Derrel

Whether they call a tiny town or a big city home, little Derrel will see the beauty and enchantment of the place they come from. A masculine name, Derrel is an alternative spelling of Derrell, the American variant of Darrell. All three of these titles originated as English last names, though their meaning is thoroughly French! Derrel derives from the Norman French phrase d'Airelle, which once described someone who came “from Airelle,” a town in Normandy, France. While baby won’t find Airelle on a current map of France, they can still appreciate their name’s link to the home of baguettes, croissants, and the Eiffel Tower. No matter where life takes little Derrel, they’ll always find time to return to their roots.
