Rossell
r(o)-sse-ll
Origin:British
Meaning:Little Rosce; Little red one; Narrow land of horses; Moor on a corner of land; Headland
Celebrate those rosy little cheeks with the masculine English name Rossell. Traditionally used as a last name, it’s based on the Old French Roscel, meaning “little Rosce” or “little red one.” If red hair is a trait that runs in baby’s family, this name can help them always feel connected to their roots. Rossell also has Old Norse roots, where it can mean “narrow land of horses,” and Welsh roots, translating to “moor on a corner of land.” Adding to those grounded vibes, Rossell can also have links to the Gaelic word ros, meaning “headland.” No matter where baby’s first home is, Rossell can help them feel connected to the earth beneath their feet.
