Angelova is Bulgarian in Origin.

Angelova is the feminine Slavic patronymic surname from Angel, via Greek angelos, 'messenger; angel'. Predominantly Bulgarian and Macedonian; also appears in other Slavic and Balkan communities. Meaning "of Angel" or "daughter/descendant of Angel," thus "of the angel; angelic." Spelled Ангелова. Documented across the Balkans from the 18th–19th centuries and common among Orthodox families venerating archangels; widely borne today.

As a baby name, Angelova is uncommon but sometimes chosen in diaspora as a distinctive, surname-style first name. Variants and related forms include the masculine Angelov; transliteration Angeloff; given-name relatives Angela, Angelina, Angeline, Angelica; South Slavic Anđela/Anđelina; East Slavic Anzhela (Анжела). Nicknames may mirror the given-name set: Angie, Gelya (Геля), Geli, Lina. Usage notes: in countries that treat -ova as a legal surname marker, Angelova functions primarily as a family name, while the root Angel remains a standard masculine given name in Bulgaria.
