What is the meaning of the name Aniella ?

The baby name Aniella is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced ah-nee-EL-uh / ˌæniˈɛlə.

Aniella is Hebrew, Italian, Polish, Slavic in Origin.

Aniella likely blends two traditions: as a variant of Polish Aniela (the local form of Angela, from Greek angelos "messenger, angel") and as the southern Italian feminine of Aniello, itself from Latin Agnellus "lamb." In either reading the name carries soft imagery, suggesting angelic protection or lamb-like innocence.

Documented in Polish records from the 18th-19th centuries via Aniela and affectionate Anielka; meanwhile Naples has long favored Aniello thanks to the cult of Sant'Aniello, which occasionally yielded the feminine Aniella. The -ella ending and the nickname-friendly core Ani/Ella/Lia have fueled modest international uptake since the 1990s. Related forms and variants include Aniela, Anielka, Angela, Angéla, Angelina; masculine counterpart Aniello. Rare in English-speaking countries, Aniella feels familiar yet distinctive, bridging Slavic and Italo-Romance heritage. Common nicknames: Ani, Nella, Ella, Lia.
