Jorell

Meaning of Jorell

Jorell is a masculine English-language name likely formed by the combination of the Jo- prefix—common in Hebrew-derived names denoting divine invocation—and the –rell suffix, resulting in a concise two-syllable construction. Pronounced joh-REHL (/dʒoʊˈrɛl/ in American English, /dʒəʊˈrɛl/ in British English), it appears in U.S. Social Security data from the late 1970s and has consistently remained rare, with annual occurrences ranging from five to twenty and typical rankings falling between the mid-700s and low-900s; in 2019 it registered five births (ranked 917th). Its balanced phonetic profile and neutral Anglo-American character reflect an analytical precision, appealing to parents who favor distinctive yet systematically derived names.
