What is the meaning of the name Lydelle ?

Lydelle is in Origin.

Lydelle is a modern English given name with two plausible sources. Most transparently, it looks like Lydia combined with the French diminutive suffix -elle, yielding a lyrical elaboration; Lydia goes back to Greek Lydía, “woman from Lydia,” the ancient Anatolian region. Some bearers also treat Lydelle as a feminine form of the English surname Lydell/Liddell, tied to the Anglo‑Scottish Border river Liddel and nearby place‑names.

As a first name it surfaces in the 20th century and remains uncommon, fitting the broader trend of -elle/-ella coinages. Variants and related forms include Lydell (masculine), Lydel, Lydelle/Lydel(le), Lyndell/Lyndelle, and the base Lydia; nicknames Elle, Lyda, or Delle. Meaning is read either as “from Lydia” (via the Lydia + -elle analysis) or as a toponymic “(from the) Liddel valley/dale” in the surname-derived line; both interpretations circulate in modern usage.
