Muriel

1. A female given name from Scottish Gaelic of mostly British usage.
   • 1857, Dinah Craik, chapter XXI, in John Halifax, Gentleman:

     She was named Muriel — after the rather peculiar name of John's mother. Her own mother would have it so; only wishing out of her full heart, happy one! that there should be a slight alteration made in the second name. Therefore the baby was called Muriel Joy — Muriel Joy Halifax.

   • 1985, Anne Tyler, The Accidental Tourist, →ISBN, page 198:

     Funny sort of name. Who would think of calling a little newborn baby Muriel?
