Earl as a feminine name represents an extremely unusual gender crossover of a traditionally masculine name. Earl derives from the Old English 'eorl,' meaning 'nobleman' or 'warrior,' and has been used as both a title of nobility and a masculine given name for centuries. Its usage for girls is exceedingly rare and unconventional, running counter to naming traditions. This gender-nonconforming application might represent family naming traditions, a surname being used as a first name, or parents seeking a truly distinctive choice. While masculine Earl saw its peak popularity in the early 20th century, feminine usage has never been statistically significant. The name carries connotations of strength, nobility, and heritage regardless of gender application.

Earl is a title name - brought to England by the vikings - that's out of fashion right now, unlike King and Duke. Its peak popularity was in the 1920s, which gives it a dusty great-grandpa feel, but there are also younger Earls in pop culture, like the reformed criminal in "My Name is Earl".
