Comments (Meaning / History Only)

Means "flour" in Norwegian and Danish.
In the case of Mel Gibson, he was named after Saint Meol (which also anglicized Mel) meaning "bald" in Gaelic.
Means "honey" (as in the gooey substance made by bees, not as in "dear") in Portuguese. A celebrity couple here named their daughter this about a year ago, and I don't know of anyone else who has done that.
Mel can also be short for Melinda.
