Lyndel is a unique and charming unisex given name of American origin. It is believed to have been created by combining elements from names like Linda, Lynda, and Delia. The name Lyndel can be attributed to the late American actress Lyndel Rhodes, who was known for her roles in films during the 1930s and 1940s. This distinctive name has been used occasionally but remains quite rare, adding to its allure. It is often associated with a friendly, approachable personality and carries a certain vintage charm.
"The name Lyndel experienced a peak in popularity during the early to mid-1940s with a significant number of babies named each year, particularly in 1942 and 1943 where there were 16 births both years. However, it seems to have declined thereafter, with fewer than 15 births per year from 1947 onwards. The total number of births over this period is 425."
