Dorelle

Dorelle is a feminine given name used primarily in English-speaking countries. The name is relatively uncommon and has no single, well-attested origin. It may be a modern formation or a derivative of other Dor- names such as Dorothy, Dora, or Dorothea, or a phonetic variant created for aesthetic or familial reasons. Spelling variants attested in some contexts include Dorelle, Dorrel, Dorrell, and Dorielle.

In terms of usage, Dorelle appears sporadically in contemporary baby-name lists and in works of fiction. It is more frequently encountered as a given name than as a surname, and there are no widely known public figures whose name is Dorelle.

Pronunciation generally follows common English patterns, with DO-rel or DOR-el as possibilities, depending on speaker and language background. Related names include Dorothy, Dorothea, Dora, and the surname variant Dorrell. The form Dorelle is distinct enough to be treated as a separate given name in onomastic references.
