}}Adel is a prestigious given name of ancient European origins that evolved from words and retained its meaning through the ages. These words meant "noble", "nobility" or "elite", had linguistic similarities, and were combined with other words to form names.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]

The words pertain to the languages of north-western Europe, which include English, French, Luxembourgish, German, Dutch, Frisian, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Faroese, and Icelandic. Today, "Adel" is a gender-neutral given name and short form of given names with this combining element.[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]

Nordic variants of the name include Ådel, Ädel, Ádel, and Ædel. German and Dutch variants of the name include Adal and Edel. French variants of the name include Édel and Adél (not to be confused with Adèle).

Adelson and Adelaide are notable masculine and feminine forms. Adelle (Adèle) is a popular feminine alternative.[26][27][28][5]

Although global, Adel remains prominent in north-western European countries. It can also be found as a family name with or without an affix (such as de Adel, den Adel, or van Adel). The Arabic equivalent of the name is Adil for which Adel can be an alternative transliteration. The Hebrew equivalent of the name is Adiel for which Adel can be an alternative transliteration.

The earliest known female to bear this name was Princess Adel of Liege, who was born circa 632 AD. The earliest known male to bear this name was King Adel of Sweden, who was born circa 572 AD. His son's name was Adelson.[29][30][31][32][33]

An old legend of a king to bear this name was of King Adel of Frisia, who is said to have been born circa 228 BC. His father's name was Friso, who is a legendary king of the Frisians and founder of the kingdom.[34][35][36]

Adel is an exemplar of a monothematic name. It is also the root of the names Adelais, Aderic, Adolf, Albert, and Alice, and their variants in other languages.

Origins

Ancient words

The name derives from Old Dutch "ōþil", Old German "adal", Old Norse "aðal", Old French "œ̄ðel", and Old English "æðel" by evolution of proto-Germanic "aþalą" (meaning "noble" and "kin") and "ōþilą" (meaning "inheritance" and "rule of the land").[37][38][39][40][41]

Today, "adel" is used throughout much of north-western Europe as the word for nobility. Aristocratic prestige is its very essense.[42][43][44][45][46]

Other origins include:

  • Runic alphabet (before the adoption of the Latin alphabet)
  • Latin alphabet (derived from the Etruscan and Greek alphabets; ultimately from the Phoenician alphabet)

Popularity

Globally

Adel was found over 4,000 times as a family name and over 15,000 times as a given name in 55 different countries. It is a relatively rare name. Aside from Nordic countries, it is most prominent in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.[47][48][49]
