Noel /noel/ [1 syll.] as a boys' name (also used less commonly as girls' name Noel) is pronounced NOH-el. It is of French origin, and the meaning of Noel is Christmas. Used since the Middle Ages. Playwright and actor Noel Coward.
Noel is the masculine spelling... Noelle is the female spelling. It's kind of like Gabriel and Gabrielle. I knew a guy named Noel and it was pronounced as No-elle, but I have heard someone else's name (Noel) pronounced Nole, rhyming with Joel. Noelle would be the spelling for a girl. I know a girl by that name, too.
