Crowel is English in Origin.

Crowel is a rare given name taken from an English habitational surname. It points to the Oxfordshire village of Crowell and to Old English elements "crawe" (crow) + "wella" (spring/stream), yielding the meaning "spring of the crows." Medieval spellings varied (Crowell, Crowle, Crowl), and Crowel represents a later simplified form that preserves the same sense and sound.

As a given name, Crowel follows the longstanding Anglo-American custom of adopting family surnames for children, attested from the 18th and 19th centuries onward and still seen in occasional contemporary use. It reads as unisex, with a crisp, nature-evoking character. Short forms include Crow. Variant spellings remain Crowell, Crowle, and Crowl; the related surname Crowell is far more common than the given-name use.
