Origin: Gaelic

Meaning: Star of the sea; Sparkling, shining sea

Murielle is a girl's name meaning "star of the sea," "sparkling sea." or "shining sea." It is a variant of the Latin name Mary, and is also related to the Irish and Scots Gaelic name Muriel, which is itself derived from Mary. Its -elle ending, however, connects it to the likes of Isabelle and Gabrielle, giving it a sprinkling of added charm. Although this name has a traditional feel, it also has a healthy dose of 90s nostalgia, thanks to Friends' Chandler Muriel Bing.
