Chantal Origin and Meaning

The name Chantal is a girl's name of French origin meaning "stone, boulder".

Though associated with a French saint noted for her holiness and strength of character, this name is somewhat dated and it might be better to look to one of the more modern names popular for little girls in France today: Oceane, Lea, Manon.
