Pamel is a unique and distinctive given name of Latin origin, derived from the male name Pamela, which itself stems from the Latin word 'pædica' meaning 'all giving'. This name was popularized in the 17th century by Sir Philip Sidney's Arcadia, where he used Pamela as a female character. The name gained further prominence through Samuel Richardson's novel "Pamela; or, Virtue Rewarded" published in 1740. Despite its masculine roots, Pamel has been predominantly associated with females throughout history. It is often considered a sophisticated and elegant choice for a given name, carrying an air of timelessness and refinement.
"Pamel has seen a steady decline in popularity from the late 1950s to the early 1970s, with peaks of seven births in 1957, 1960 and 1961, followed by consistent decreases reaching five births in 1970."
