The surname Candell, originally spelled as Candel, is of Irish descent and has a fascinating history that dates back several centuries. The name is derived from the Gaelic word caindeal, which means 'candle.' It is believed to have originated as a nickname for someone who made or sold candles or perhaps even someone who was associated with the Church.
The surname Candell is most commonly found in County Cork, Ireland, which suggests that this is the area where the name originated. In ancient times, County Cork was known for its thriving candle-making industry, making it highly likely that many individuals with the surname Candell were involved in this trade.
Over time, as families moved and migrated, the surname Candell spread to other parts of Ireland and eventually to other parts of the world. Many individuals with the surname Candell can now be found in other countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, primarily due to Irish immigration during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Today, the surname Candell continues to be passed down through generations, representing the enduring legacy of those who were once associated with the candle-making trade in Ireland.
