What is the meaning of the name Ronnel ?

Ronnel is English in Origin.

Ronnel is a modern English given name formed by elaborating Ron - most often the short form of Ronald - with the productive -el/-ell ending found in names like Lionel and Cornell. As such, its meaning generally follows Ronald, from Old Norse Ragnvaldr (regin “advice, power of the gods” + valdr “ruler”), typically interpreted as “advisor to the ruler” or “ruler with divine counsel.” Some also connect Ron to the Hebrew Ron “song, joy,” giving a folk sense of “joy” to the name, though this is secondary.

The name surfaced in mid–late 20th‑century usage, particularly in the United States and the Philippines, and remains occasional but recognizable. Spelling variants include Ronel, Ronell, Ronnell, and Ronelle (the latter used as a feminine form). Common diminutives are Ron and Ronnie. The double‑n spelling in Ronnel stabilizes pronunciation and distinguishes it from one‑n Ronel.
