Aelle is English in Origin.
Aelle is a modernized rendering of the Old English name Ælle/Ælla, recorded in early Anglo‑Saxon England. Its precise etymology is uncertain: it is often viewed as a short form of compounds beginning with Ælf- ‘elf’ or Æthel- ‘noble,’ and some link it to Proto‑Germanic *aljaz ‘other, foreign,’ a source of medieval Ella. Historical pronunciation is roughly AEL‑leh.
The name was borne by two notable rulers: Ælle of Sussex (5th century), cited by the Anglo‑Saxon Chronicle as the first bretwalda, and Ælle (Ælla) of Deira (d. 588). Medieval Latin texts spell it Aella; other variants include Ælle, Ælla, and modern Aelle. Today it is rare and sometimes read as unisex through overlap with Ella/Elle. Not to be confused with Greek Aella ‘whirlwind,’ an unrelated mythic name.
