Origin: Swedish

Meaning: Man of God; God is my strength

Gabrial is believed to be a Faroese or Swedish form of the Hebrew Gabriel. Meaning “man of God” and “God is my strength,” it comes from the Hebrew words gebher, meaning “man,” and ‘el, meaning “God.” Gabrial is a gender-neutral variant of Gabriel, the angel who, in the Bible, announces to Mary that she will give birth to the Son of God. A modern namesake, Gabrial McNair is a musician and composer known for his work with No Doubt and trombone performances on several Green Day tours. Perhaps your little angel, Gabrial, will also be a bearer of good news, bringing joy and smiles all year round.
