Diezel is English in Origin.
Diezel is a modern given name, a stylized spelling of Diesel. Diesel derives from the German surname, best known through inventor Rudolf Diesel. The surname probably began as a diminutive of medieval names with the element diot/theud "people," such as Dietrich (Theodoric), hence the sense "people’s ruler"; some sources also connect it to Matthias. As a first name, Diezel inherits contemporary overtones of strength, machinery, and high energy.
Used as a given name only since the late 20th century, Diezel saw modest uptake in the United States and other English-speaking countries and gained notice through celebrity use (for example, Toni Braxton’s son). Variants include Diesel (more common) and rarer Deisel; informal short forms are Dee or Zel. While chiefly masculine, occasional unisex use appears.
