Murel is an uncommon, distinctive given name of unknown etymology. It gained some popularity in the mid-20th century but remains relatively rare today. The name Murel does not appear to have any specific meaning or derivation from established naming traditions. Instead, it seems to be a unique creation, perhaps inspired by other names starting with 'M' and ending with 'el', such as Muriel or Melisandre.
"Murel appears to have been a popular name from the early 1900s to the mid-1930s, with peak years seeing around 20 births annually. However, its popularity waned significantly post-WWII, with fewer than 10 births per year after 1945."
