Amarelle is in Origin.

Amarelle is a rare, modern feminine name with layered Romance roots. It reads as an elaboration of Amara plus the French feminine suffix -elle, ultimately pointing to Latin amare, “to love,” and amabilis, “lovable.” In French horticultural vocabulary, une amarelle names a pale-juiced sour cherry (contrasted with the griotte), from Old French amer “bitter” < Latin amarus - an echo that adds a sweet‑tart, cherry-bright image to the name. Amarelle also appears as a Galician surname, giving it a subtle Iberian resonance. Recorded only sporadically before the late 20th century, Amarelle surfaces in contemporary registries in the U.S., Canada, and France, chosen for its melodious -elle ending and distinctive yet familiar sound. Possible variants include Amarielle and Amarella; shorter forms and nicknames are Ama, Mara, Ari, and Elle/Ella. Meanings proposed by modern bearers center on “beloved,” “little love,” or, by French association, a “light sour cherry,” blending affection with freshness.
