In all the world, Arshel (Arshel 
) is a rare principally masculine, but scarcely feminine forename. The given name Arshel is habitual in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is a rare masculine name, Philippines, where it is a very rare gender-neutral name, and Indonesia, where it is a very rare boy's name. Much less frequently, Arshel is the last name as well as the forename.
