Virgel

Virgel Origin and Meaning

The name Virgel is a boy's name.

Virgel is a masculine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Virgil, which has Latin origins in the name 'Vergilius.' The classical association with the renowned Roman poet Virgil (70-19 BCE), author of the 'Aeneid,' gives the name a literary and intellectual quality. This spelling variation emerged primarily in the American South and rural communities during the 19th and early 20th centuries, reflecting regional pronunciation patterns. While never extremely common, the name saw modest use in the United States through the mid-20th century before declining in popularity. Virgel conveys a sense of classical education and rural simplicity simultaneously, making it an interesting name that bridges different cultural worlds.
