Verdelle

Meaning & origin

Verdelle is a rare American name that first appeared in Social Security records in 1916. Its peak year was 1930, and it has not ranked in recent decades, remaining extremely uncommon. The name's trajectory has been stable, with no notable revival. Verdelle's origins are somewhat obscure; it may be a variant of Verdale or a feminine form of Verdell, possibly derived from French 'verd' meaning 'green'. The name follows a pattern of early 20th-century American invention, using the popular -elle suffix. Today, Verdelle is an unusual choice that reflects a bygone era of naming, with no recorded usage in 2025 and no top states associated with its use.
