History & Origin

Londell has no ancient pedigree; it was made in the United States. It appeared from the early nineteen-twenties, drew on the rhythm of names like Rondell, and reached a quiet high in 1973.

The name was never common, given to only a couple dozen boys a year at most, though its run stretched into the twenty-twenties. A man named Londell at that peak would be in his early fifties today, and the -dell ending still lends it an easy, familiar cadence.

Did you know? The ending -dell, shared with Wendell and Rondell, gave a run of coined names a settled, surname-like feel, and Londell rides that pattern rather than translating any older term.
