    What does Noel Mean
    I'm at work :), and we're having a debate on what Noel means. I did a Google search, and found it in wikipedia, but all it says is a christmas celebration, or a christmas carol. We're all wondering what exactly it means when you say "Noel" :)

    Thanks! :D

    I always thought it was French for Christmas.

    Noel essentially means "Day of birth".

    It come from the Latin "Natal" (I think) and the old French variant of that, "nael"
