Ursule

Ursule is the French feminine form of Ursula, derived from the Latin word 'ursula' meaning 'little female bear.' The name carries a rich history dating back to Saint Ursula, a legendary British princess and Christian martyr from the 4th or 5th century. Throughout European history, Ursule has maintained associations with strength and determination, reflecting the bear symbolism in its etymology. While never extremely common, the name experienced modest popularity in French-speaking regions and has an elegant, classical quality. Ursule offers a sophisticated alternative to the more widely recognized Ursula, with its distinctly French pronunciation adding a touch of refinement and international flair.

As of October 2026, Ursule ranked #1914 in US births in 1900 SSA.
