Maelle is a feminine name of French and Breton origin. Coming from the Breton title Maëlys, Maelle translates to “chief,” “prince,” or "lord." If you know your little one is going to be treated like royalty by everyone in your crew, this moniker could be very fitting. Maelle may also stem from máel, an Old Celtic word meaning "bald" or "bare." Perhaps this definition will remind you of baby's adorable bald head that you'll cover with a crown (hat!)
