Jaelle
Meaning of Jaelle
Jaelle is a chic, under-the-radar name that marries French flair with a dash of Old Testament grit. Pronounced zhah-EL, it traces back to the Hebrew Yael, meaning “mountain goat”—an animal famous for its sure-footed climbs on rugged terrain. Over the past two decades, Jaelle has been quietly winning over American parents, hovering around the 900s on the popularity charts (33 babies claimed it in 2024, at No. 917). Its soft zhah opening feels melodic on the tongue, while the biblical nod lends a subtle backbone. Parents can almost picture a fearless little explorer bounding up life’s slopes with grace and curiosity. Poised yet playful, Jaelle stands out without shouting—like dawn’s first light breaking through morning mist, promising strength and brightness ahead.
