Randyll
Randyll Origin and Meaning
Randyll is a masculine name representing a spelling variation of Randall or Randal, which derive from the Old Norse name Randulfr, combining elements meaning "shield" and "wolf." This particular spelling with the double "l" gives the name a distinctive appearance while maintaining the traditional pronunciation. The name gained some recognition through its use for the character Randyll Tarly in George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" series and its television adaptation "Game of Thrones." While the standard Randall has maintained moderate popularity throughout the 20th century in English-speaking countries, the Randyll variant remains quite uncommon, appealing to parents seeking familiar sounds with unique spelling or to fans of fantasy literature.
