Derived from Old French 'Daschiel', meaning 'of Dashboard', Dashell is an uncommon yet distinctive given name of English origin. It's composed of two elements: 'Dash', which has been used in personal names since the Middle Ages, and 'Hel', a shortened form of various Germanic names ending in '-helm'. The name Dashell gained limited popularity during the medieval period but has not been widely used in recent times, making it an uncommon yet historical choice for a first name.
