Muireall is a feminine Scottish Gaelic name with ancient Celtic roots. It derives from the Gaelic elements "muir" meaning "sea" and a diminutive suffix, essentially translating to "sea-bright" or "sparkling sea." Historically used in the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Muireall represents the cultural connection to the surrounding waters that shaped Scottish life. While never extremely common, the name has survived through generations of Scottish families preserving their heritage. Today, Muireall remains a distinctive choice that carries the lyrical quality characteristic of Gaelic names. Parents choosing this name often appreciate its authentic Scottish character and melodic pronunciation (usually moor-ee-el). Though rare outside Scotland, it resonates with those seeking a name with genuine Celtic origins and maritime associations.
