Valley or small valley
Dael is a variant of the English and Germanic word 'dale', referring to a person who lived in a valley. It is also considered a modern short form of the Hebrew name Adael, meaning 'God's ornament'. In recent years, it has gained some traction as a sleek, nature-inspired choice.
