Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Adela vznikla osamostatnením skrátenej podoby germánskych ženských mien s prvou zložkou adal-, napríklad mena Adelheid. Tento základ súvisí so starohornonemeckým adal „urodzený rod, šľachta“ a významom „vznešený, urodzený“. Meno sa preto tradične vykladá ako „vznešená, ušľachtilá“; jeho vznik nemožno obmedziť výlučne na skrátenie mena Adelheid.
