Darcelle

Meaning of Darcelle

Darcelle is an Anglo-American feminine given name rooted in the Norman-French surname D’Arcel and augmented with the –elle suffix to denote a feminine form, situating it alongside names such as Isabelle and Gabrielle within a tradition of French-derived personal nomenclature. Phonetically represented as /dərˈsɛl/ (dar-SELL), the name adheres to a consonant–vowel structure valued for its clarity and balance. Analysis of U.S. Social Security Administration data from 1952 through 1988 shows intermittent use, peaking at 22 occurrences (rank 682) in 1953 and generally maintaining a position between ranks 700 and 800 in subsequent years. This pattern suggests a sustained, albeit modest, appeal rooted in cultural heritage, phonological economy and an implicit association with French elegance.
