Norval is a male name with English origin. It is pronounced as NOR-vuhl (/nɔrˈvəl/). Variations of the name include Norville. In terms of popularity, data for newborns in the United States shows that Norval had its peak in the early 20th century. It ranked within the top 1000 names from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, and by the mid-1900s, it gradually declined in usage. However, it's worth noting that Norval still maintains a sense of uniqueness and charm for parents looking for a less common name for their baby boy.
