If you're holding out for a hero, you can't go wrong with Ferrell. This masculine name of Irish origin means "hero," "man of courage," and "descendant of Fearghal." Ferrell is an anglicized form of Ó Fearghails and takes after a noble 15th-century family who famously retook leadership from the English. It's shared with big screen actors Will and Colin and baseball hall-of-famer Rick Ferrell. With this bold name, your little warrior will always save the day and hit every home run!
