Marvell
American origin
“A surname-style variant of Marvel, Marvell doubles the 'l' for a more formal, literary impression reminiscent of poet Andrew Marvell. This spelling lends gravitas while preserving the sense of wonder from the root. It's a name that feels both intellectual and aspirational.”
