Hasell is English in Origin.
Hasell is a rare English surname‑turned‑given name rooted in Old English hæsel, “hazel tree,” a word shared across Germanic languages (cf. German Hasel). As a family name it marked someone who lived by hazel trees or came from places named for them. Spellings have varied in records - Hasell, Hassell, Hazell, Hasel - and the given name borrows from this same pool; it also aligns with the nature name Hazel.
As a first name, Hasell appears sporadically from the 18th and 19th centuries in Britain and North America, often honoring a maternal surname, and re-emerged alongside botanical revivals in the 1900s and again today. It means “hazel tree,” carrying Celtic associations of wisdom, protection, and poetic inspiration. Usage is unisex - traditionally occasional for boys via the surname route, now more often perceived as feminine. Informal diminutives include Haze and Zell.
Hasell is extremely rare. There are only 12 recorded uses on record, spread over 7 countries.
