Cornell

Cornell is a French masculine name with an interesting origin story and meanings. Said to derive from the Latin cornēlĭus, it’s thought to mean “horn,” “horned,” and “hard as a horn.” There are some suggestions that it may also have Greek roots, translating to “cornel tree.” In more ways than one, Cornell links to elements of the natural world. Many spectacular creatures bear horns and perhaps your little one will learn to adopt some of their noteworthy qualities, standing firm in their own unique identity.
