It is a Catalan surname, originally from the historic Kingdom of Aragon and now common across Spanish-speaking nations. Infrequently seen as a given name, this is still found globally, though it has more popular variants.
As a consistently uncommon given name, it was historically found in religious settings, predominantly Christian but also Sephardi. The surname was considered a name of nobility in Aragon and Catalonia during the Middle Ages, during which Vidal lines had ruled over Valencia and the Balearic Islands. In the 20th and 21st centuries, it is still globally widespread.
