History & Origin

Antrell appears in United States records from the mid-1970s, joining an An- opening to the fashionable -trell ending. It echoes Montrell and Terrell without an inherited meaning, valued for its bold, compact sound.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen boys a year even at its 2006 high and rare otherwise. An Antrell from that peak is in his late teens or twenties now, part of a generation fond of self-made names.

Did you know? Antrell shares its -trell ending with Montrell and Kentrell, all echoing the surname-name Terrell.
