From Middle English apel, appel (“formal accusation brought in court; a challenge to trial by combat; an appeal to a higher court or authority; plea (for mercy, protection, etc.); pealing (of bells)”) [and other forms], from Old French apel (“a call”) (modern French appel (“a call; an appeal”)), from apeler (“to call; to call out”), from Latin appell?re, adpell?re, respectively the present active infinitives of appell?

(“to drive, impel, push; to hurl, propel; to banish, expel; to eject, thrust out”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *pelh?- (“to approach”), from *pel- (“to beat; to drive; to push”)).
