US Popularity Rank: 7979

Origin: Italian

Meaning: Angel, of the angels; Messenger, the messenger of God

DiAngelo is a variation of DeAngelo, a combination of the prefix de- and the Italian angelo. It is a boy’s name of Italian origin that means “Angel, of the angels.” It may also stem from the Greek ággelos, which carries the same meaning as well as “Messenger, the messenger of God.” Historically, this was the last name of the distinguished Di Angelo clan from Venice in Italy. In recent times, variant spellings of DiAngelo have increased in popularity in the United States. D’Angelo Russell, a skilled point guard for the Los Angeles Lakers, and critically acclaimed neo-soul singer Michael Eugene Archer, better known as D’Angelo, both carry the name proudly. Baby DiAngelo will be your little angel, with brilliant role models to look up to as they learn and grow.
