At a Glance: Name: Mirabelle – Meaning: wonderful, admirable one – Origin: Latin (via French) – Gender: Neutral – Pronunciation: MIR-ah-bel
Mirabelle comes from Latin by way of French, and its meaning is 'wonderful, admirable one.' You may have heard it explained as a French blend of 'mira' (wonder) and 'belle' (beautiful) — that's a nice story, but it's not accurate; the name was borrowed whole from Latin mirabilis rather than built from those two separate words. It's gender-neutral with a romantic, storybook feel, pronounced MIR-ah-bel.
