Merrell Family CrestThe Scottish, Irish and English surname Merrell is an habitational name from any of several minor places named with the Old English elements myrige meaning “pleasant” and hyll meaning “hill.” When found in Scotland and Ireland it derives from the ancient Gaelic Muirgheal of the pre 10th century, and translating as 'Sea-bright', although it is also claimed that as Mureil it was a Breton name brought to England by the Norman-French invaders of 1066. Early written records of the name include Walter Merel of Suffolk in the Subsidy Rolls of Suffolk in 1381, and Thomas Merells also of Suffolk in 1524.

In the 2010 US census there were almost 8,500 people with the surname Merrell living in The United States.
