Wendle is an uncommon given name of unknown origin, likely derived from Old English elements meaning 'winding' and 'hill'. It was occasionally used in England during the Middle Ages but has since fallen into obscurity. The name Wendle has no known variants or related names.
Wendle appears to have been quite popular during the early to mid-20th century, particularly between 1940 and 1959 with a total of 82 births in those years alone. However, it seems to have fallen out of favor afterwards, as there were only five more recorded births between 1960 and 1967. The peak year for the name was 1940 and 1942 with eight births each.
