Eathel

Eathel Origin and Meaning

The name Eathel is a girl's name.

Eathel is an uncommon feminine name with unclear origins, possibly a variant spelling of Ethel, which comes from Old English "æðel" meaning "noble" or "of noble birth." The added 'a' creates a softer, more distinctive pronunciation. Another possibility is that it represents a creative combination of names like Elizabeth and Ethel. Eathel has a vintage quality reminiscent of names popular in the early 20th century, though it was never widely used even then. The name carries an air of gentility and old-world charm. Very rare in contemporary usage, Eathel might appeal to parents seeking a truly uncommon name with historical resonance and a soft, feminine sound.
