About Clydell

Clydell is a masculine name that appears to be a combination of Clyde and the popular suffix -ell. Clyde has Scottish origins, derived from the River Clyde in Scotland, while the -ell suffix has been used to create variations of names particularly in Southern United States naming traditions. The name has a strong, sturdy quality with its consonant sounds. Clydell saw modest usage in the United States during the mid-20th century, particularly in Southern states, but has remained uncommon overall. It carries a vintage charm that might appeal to parents looking for a name with traditional roots but limited contemporary usage. The name suggests dependability and strength with its solid phonetic structure.

Clydell is also given to girls.

Pronounced CLYDE-ell.

As of October 2026, Clydell ranked #9877 in US births in 1998 SSA, peaked at #2612 in 1950.
