Looking for correct spelling, root and meaning of this name.
Supposed to be celtic in origin.
Understood to still be used in Wales and outer Scottish islands.

According to my Welsh names reference book, the masculine name of "Terfel" is still in use in Wales today. It is a variation of the name "Derfel" or "Derfael", which was the name of an early saint from the Llandderfel chuch in Merionethshire. The name means either "Oak Prince" (derw + mael) or "Stubborn Prince" (der + mael).
