Arnellah is Germanic in Origin.

Arnellah is a rare, modern feminine elaboration of Arnelle/Arnella, ultimately tied to the Germanic personal name Arnold via French Arnaud. Arnold combines the elements arn “eagle” and wald “rule, power,” yielding the sense “eagle ruler” or “ruled by the eagle.” The -ah ending reflects contemporary English naming style that softens and feminizes existing forms, while parallel developments appear in communities where Arnel (a short form of Arnold, notably used in the Philippines and the Balkans) is common.
