Etymology
Axel is a Scandinavian male name that likely comes from the old name Absalon, from Hebrew and meaning 'father of peace', so Axel can be remembered as 'father of peace'. Another old idea links Axel to an old Norse name made of áss ('god') and ketill ('helmet' or 'cauldron'), which gives the idea of someone 'protected by the gods'. You can also remember it from the skating jump 'axel', named after a Norwegian skater called Axel Paulsen, which makes the name more familiar.
