Answer 3

Ladell is a very rare male first name and a common surname (source: 1990 U.S. Census).

Also spelled Ladell, Lydell and Ledell.

It's a pseudo-French name.

Found a lot among the American Mormons.

French words for 'the' - 'la' is feminine, in this case, meaning "The Dell".

Dell \d(e)-ll\ is of Old English origin, and its meaning is "small valley".

So.....it means someone from the small valley, or in his case being male, son of the lady from the small valley.
