Origin: American

Meaning: From Airelle

Durell is beloved among African Americans as a masculine name and form of Durrell and Dorrell. Ultimately from the British last name Darrell, Durell inherits the meaning “from Airelle.” Darrell sprouted to life in England after the Norman Conquest in 1066, by families from Airelle in Calvados or Airel in Normandy, France. Well-traveled and sporting a dapper chime, Durell breathes modern life into this age-old appellation, ideal for the little captain at the helm of their adventure.
