Sorrel is a bright, tangy woodland herb, and also a warm reddish-brown; its name has a fresh, green feel.
Soft and natural, it makes a gentle, earthy nature name.
Sorrel does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.

In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Sorrel reduce to 6, The Nurturer. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
