Meaning & origin
Kindall is a modern given name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1965. While it has never entered the top 1000, it enjoyed a period of modest popularity, reaching its peak usage in 2011. Since then, its frequency has been falling. The name is most likely a creative respelling of Kendall, a surname-turned-first-name that has been in use for both boys and girls. Kindall carries a contemporary, surname-style feel, and is seldom used, making it a distinctive choice. No top states have been associated with the name, reflecting its rare and scattered usage across the country.
Kindall appears to be a modern coinage, likely derived from the surname Kendall or a respelled variant of the name Kendall. The element 'kin' may have been chosen for its pleasant sound or familial connotation. The name has been recorded in the United States since the mid-1960s, with its peak popularity in 2011. It remains a rare but recognizable given name.
