Claudel is a refined French name that functions as both a surname and given name, more commonly used for girls though it can be unisex. It originated as a diminutive of Claude, itself derived from the Latin 'Claudius,' meaning 'lame' or 'limping.' The name gained artistic associations through French sculptor Camille Claudel, a pioneering female artist who worked in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This connection gives the name a creative, artistic flair that appeals to culturally-minded parents. Though uncommon outside French-speaking regions, Claudel offers a sophisticated alternative to the more traditional Claude, with its distinctive '-el' ending adding a touch of elegance and uniqueness while maintaining its French heritage.

Claudel is occasionally used for boys in 1994.
