History & Origin

Rickelle is a coined name that fits the fashionable -elle ending onto a Rick- opening, close to Rachelle and Richelle. Through those it reaches Rachel, from the Hebrew for 'ewe.' Rickelle itself is a modern American invention, peaking late enough to sit firmly in the -elle wave of the nineteen-eighties and nineties.

Rickelle was never common, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak in the early nineteen-nineties, and it faded through the two-thousands and twenty-tens. A girl named Rickelle then is in her early thirties today.

Did you know? Rickelle belongs to a late-century vogue for -elle endings, the same taste that lifted Rachelle, Michelle and Danielle onto so many birth certificates.
