What Does the Name Quintrell Mean?
Quintrell is an English family name whose original sense is not securely established. It is recorded mainly in southwestern England, especially Cornwall and Devon, and it is also used, much less often, as a given name. The name is sometimes compared with Quintus, Quinton, and Quinlan, but no derivation from those names has been documented, and the resemblance appears to be coincidental. The Cornish place name Quintrell Downs, near Newquay, is connected with the surname, although it is not clear whether the place was named for a family or the family for the place.
Quintrell Name History & Origins
Quintrell took shape as a surname in medieval England and is associated chiefly with Cornwall and Devon in the southwest. Cornish place names very often use elements such as tre- ("homestead") and gwynn ("white, fair"), so a Cornish place-name origin has been suggested, but the specific elements have not been identified with confidence. Another possibility is a diminutive surname ending in -ell formed from a personal name, a common pattern in English family names. Neither explanation is firmly documented.
As a first name, Quintrell is uncommon and appears mainly in the United States, where it follows the general pattern of surnames being adopted as given names. No literary work, saint, or historical figure is known to account for its use as a personal name.
