Randell

Randell is a masculine given name that evolved as a variant of Randall, which originated from the Old Norse name 'Randulfr,' combining elements meaning 'shield' and 'wolf.' This name traveled to England with the Vikings and later became popular in medieval times. Randell has a strong, masculine character while maintaining a softer edge than the more common Randall. Though less frequently used than its parent name, Randell enjoyed modest popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century but has gradually declined since then. It carries connotations of strength and protection, reflecting its ancient warrior origins.

Randell is also given to girls.

Pronounced RAN-del.

As of October 2026, Randell ranked #13015 in US births in 1994 SSA, peaked at #3852 in 1986.
