Almond; little basket
Mandell is primarily derived from the Germanic and Yiddish word for almond, often used as an occupational name for a seller of almonds. It can also trace back to Middle English roots referring to a maker of baskets. In some instances, it is a variant of the name Mendel, which is a diminutive of Immanuel.
