History & Origin

Aerielle is a modern respelling of Arielle, the feminine of Ariel, from the Hebrew Ariel, 'lion of God,' a name used in scripture for Jerusalem. The airy spelling, echoing 'aerial,' spread in the late nineteen-eighties alongside the popular Ariel. Aerielle keeps the powerful Hebrew meaning while wearing a lighter, decorative form.

Aerielle in this spelling was never common, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak around 1989, while Arielle and Ariel were more familiar. A girl named Aerielle then is in her mid-thirties today.
