Shantell

US Popularity Rank: 17802

Origin: French

Meaning: Stone

You'll always think about your little Shantell whenever you cast a pebble into the water. Shantell comes from the Old French word cantal, which represents a "stone." Similar to Shantelle and Chantal, Shantell may remind one of the volcanic landscape surrounding Monts du Cantal in central France. As you cast your stone into the lake, may each ripple across the water bring you and baby Shantell an abundance of blessings.
