Name Meaning
German: from the personal name Appel, a pet form of Apprecht (common especially in Thuringia and Franconia), itself a variant of Albrecht .
German, Dutch, and Jewish (Ashkenazic): from Low German Ap(p)el, Middle Dutch appel, or Yiddish epl ‘apple’, hence an occupational name for a grower or seller of the fruit. The economic importance in medieval northern Europe of apples, as a fruit that could be grown in a cold climate and would keep throughout the winter, is hard to appreciate in these days of rapid transportation and year-round availability of fruits of all kinds. As a Jewish name it is generally artificial. Compare Apfel , Appell , and Apple .
Jewish (Ashkenazic): variant of Apel .
