Montrelle is English in Origin.

Montrelle is a modern American given name formed by combining the Romance root mont- ("mountain," from Latin mons via French mont/Spanish monte) with the fashionable -rell/-relle ending found in Darrell and Terrell. It is often treated as a stylistic variant of Montrell or Montel, so its attributed meaning is "mountain; hill," though the name itself arose through contemporary elaboration rather than from a single Old World source.

In U.S. usage, Montrelle appears from the late 20th century, particularly within African-American naming traditions that favor inventive blends and French-leaning spellings. It is predominantly masculine but can be used unisex. Related forms and spellings include Montrell, Montrel, Montel, and Montelle; short forms include Monty and Trell. The -elle ending lends a Francophone look reminiscent of place names like Montreal, even if no direct link exists. Overall, Montrelle conveys strength and elevation, with a contemporary, sleek sound.
