feminine · English origin
Adelle is an English feminine name functioning as a variant of Adele, which derives from the Old High German element adal, meaning noble. The name entered widespread use in medieval Europe partly through Saint Adela of Normandy, daughter of William the Conqueror. Related forms include Adela, Adele, and Adelaide, the last of which combines the noble element with heid, meaning kind or sort.
