Donnelle
Meaning of Donnelle
Donnelle is a spirited twist on the ancient Gaelic name Domhnall—literally “world-mighty”—and wears its heritage with easy confidence. Perfectly unisex, Donnelle feels at home whether whispered under a morning sky or cheered at a school play, carrying a subtle promise of leadership and kindness. Imagine its soft consonants rolling off the tongue like a gentle breeze across the Irish moors, yet grounded by that sturdy “-el” ending that hints at quiet strength. In Anglo-American circles, it’s unfussy but far from ordinary—a name ready for big dreams, small triumphs and every adventure in between. With Donnelle, a child inherits more than a name: they inherit a legacy of warmth, courage and world-shaping potential.
