Gisselle Origin and Meaning
The name Gisselle is a girl's name.
Gisselle is a feminine name derived from the Germanic name 'Gisela,' meaning 'pledge' or 'hostage' in its ancient context, though the modern connotation is more about a sacred promise or bond. This elegant variation of Giselle gained popularity in the late 20th century, especially in Hispanic communities. The name received additional cultural recognition through ballet, as 'Giselle' is the title of a famous romantic ballet about a peasant girl with a fragile heart. The spelling with double 's' adds a touch of uniqueness while maintaining the graceful, feminine qualities of the original. Gisselle continues to be moderately popular, appreciated for its delicate sound and sophisticated air.
