If I saw this as a surname I'd say that it came from the English place name Wirrall, Cheshire (or Merseyside).

Sean - Werel read on...

Werel was a family local to Suffolk.

Upon investigation i found that Worlingham (near Beccles) in Suffolk, is named after the followers of Werel

John Werel lived next to Worlingham
