Lindell is a unisex given name of Old English and Scandinavian origin, derived from the elements lind, denoting the linden tree, and dell, meaning a small valley. Initially a toponymic surname in Northern Europe, it has evolved into a contemporary forename with cross-cultural resonance—particularly among Latino families drawn to its natural imagery and melodic simplicity. Pronounced LIN-dell (/lɪn-ˈdɛl/), the name has maintained a modest presence in the United States, ranking near the 900s in recent Social Security Administration data—with five recorded births in 2023—after peaking in the mid-20th century within the 600s. Its balanced phonetic profile and pastoral associations offer an understated, gender-neutral choice for parents seeking a name that bridges historical depth and modern appeal.
