History & Origin

Rontrell is a coinage of sound, setting Ron, from Ronald, in front of the popular '-trell' close. Ronald descends from the Old Norse Rognvaldr, 'ruler's counsel,' while the '-trell' ending is purely a matter of modern style.

It never became common, given to only about fifteen boys a year at its peak around 1990 before fading. A boy named Rontrell then is in his thirties today.

Did you know? Rontrell rides the '-trell' wave that also produced Montrell and Cantrell, a late-century ending that gave American boys' names a strong, upbeat finish.
