Arnelle
Meaning of Arnelle
Arnelle is a distinctive feminine name formed by the Germanic element arn, meaning “eagle,” coupled with the French diminutive suffix -elle. In Persian cultural lore, the eagle-like Simorgh symbolizes transcendence and wisdom, lending Arnelle an undercurrent of mythic grace. U.S. Social Security data reveal a quietly persistent usage: five newborns in both 1948 and 1968, a modest rise to fifty-one in 1995 (ranked around 808), and seven more in 2001 (ranked 895). Such sporadic appearances suggest a name that prefers solitude to saturation—never a mainstream tide-turner, yet always poised for lift-off. Pronounced ar-NEL (/ɑrˈnɛl/), Arnelle balances historical depth with contemporary subtlety, appealing to parents seeking elegance without excess.
