Where does the name Noel come from?

Wikipedia explains that Noel is a given name often given to both girls and boys born over the Christmas period, and that it derives from the Old French Noël, “Christmas,” a variant of nael, from the Latin natalis, “birth.” In modern English a noel can also be a Christmas carol.
