Deal Origin and Meaning

The name Deal is a girl's name.

Deal as a feminine given name is exceptionally rare. It originates primarily as an English surname derived from the Old English 'del' or 'dale,' referring to a valley or hollow. As a first name, Deal has occasionally appeared in historical records but never gained significant popularity. The name's brevity gives it a modern, minimalist quality despite its ancient origins. Deal shares qualities with other short, direct names that have crossed from surnames to first names. The simplicity of Deal makes it distinctive as a feminine name, appealing potentially to parents looking for something unconventional, straightforward, and gender-neutral with historical roots.
