Andrelle, pronounced /än-dʀɛl/, is a unique and distinctive given name of recent coinage. It is believed to have originated as an American neologism in the late 20th century, though its etymology is uncertain. Some suggest it may be a blend of the names Andrea and Michelle, while others propose it could be derived from the French 'andr' meaning 'man' combined with the suffix '-elle', often used to create feminine names. Despite its unclear origin, Andrelle has gained some traction as an alternative to more traditional names like Andrea or Andrea. It is typically considered a female name, though there are no strict grammatical rules governing its gender association.
