Meaning and history
Shantelle is a modern English spelling variant of Chantel or Chantal. Chantal originated as a French surname from a place name meaning “stony” or “rocky,” and became a given name through Saint Jane Frances de Chantal. The initial Sh reflects English phonetic adaptation and does not establish a Sanskrit connection with shanti, “peace.” Notable bearers include Canadian singer Shantelle Davidson and Australian athlete Shantelle Thompson OAM, a martial artist and wrestler.
