If Ethel is the same as Ettel, it's origin is from Esther. There are those who call their daughter Esther “Etty” and some would later change it back to Esther.

MommyZ - you posted as I was typing my reply about Adira!
I was thinking of Sarah too - it means princess which is someone noble.

Is Etel from "adel" (Germanic root, noble) or Esther or even Yehudit? Hard to say. So I would keep the name as is.

ETTEL is a Yiddish form of ESTHER, from the Persian, meaning STAR or BLISS (Gorr, Shmuel. 1992. Jewish Personal Names. Bergenfield: Avotaynu, Inc. 61)

Unfortunately many names are machlokes, and Ettel is one of them.
