Moselle is an American name for girls with Hebrew and Egyptian roots. The feminine version of Moses, Moselle is thought to mean "child" or "son" in Egyptian or "liberate" and "save" in Hebrew. In the Old Testament, Moses was found as a baby in the Bulrushes of the River Nile and grew up to become a powerful leader who led the Israelites out of slavery. A parent hoping to celebrate their faith and share their religious beliefs with baby may find this name particularly meaningful. Moselle is also a fitting choice if you love French-sounding names with the elegant elle ending that echoes other pretty names like Michelle, Isabelle, and Annabelle.
