It's the French word for "Christmas."

1. Christmas, also
2. a shout of joy at Christmas for the birth of the Savior. (The first noel the angels did say was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay.)

Remarkably, it's an early French form of "natal" that was sort of slurred into, or blurred into "Noel." So it literally means "birth".
