Meaning: God has answered

For your enchanting little angel, Anael comes fitted with a halo. This ancient name derives from the Hebrew ănâyâh and carries the faithful meaning “God has answered.” Anael is one of the seven archangels in Jewish tradition. Associated with the planet Venus, some say Anael is the most beautiful of the angels—ideal for your rose-cheeked cherub. Originally a masculine title, Anael’s recent popularity for girls has transformed it into a versatile gender-neutral name suitable for all angels sent from heaven.
