Comments (Meaning / History Only)

Sorrell is actually my name, no joke it is honestly my first name. I was named after an Anglo Saxon priestess way back when because my mother liked the name. I pronounce it So-rul where as others say So-rell. There's no right or wrong way in regards to pronouncing or spelling. (Dad added an L due to being hungover the day he registered me). Kids these days are being named after all sorts, so why not go for something different yet with flare =)
This is a difficult one. Some sources relate it to the plant, others relate it to a French origin with two 'l's meaning 'reddish-brown'. I was more or less nicknamed it after my great grandmother as a Yiddish derivative of Sarah.
