What is the meaning of the name Remiel ?

The baby name Remiel is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced reh-MEE-el (REH-mee-el); alternative: ruh-MY-el.

Remiel is Hebrew in Origin.

Remiel is a Semitic theophoric name built on -el, meaning God. Scholars derive it either from Hebrew ra'am, thunder (yielding Ramiel/Remiel, thunder of God), or from the compassion root racham via Jerahmeel/Jeremiel, giving the sense God will have mercy or mercy of God. Both readings circulate in Jewish and Christian angelological traditions.

It enters literature in the apocryphal Book of Enoch, where Remiel is counted among the seven archangels and set over those who rise, often interpreted as the resurrected or penitents. In the deuterocanonical 2 Esdras (4 Ezra), the cognate Jeremiel/Ieremiel appears as a heavenly interpreter, a link that shaped medieval lists of archangels. As a given name, Remiel is rare but gaining modern use for its luminous, gentle sound and spiritual resonance. Variants include Ramiel, Jeremiel/Jeremiel/Ieremiel and Jerahmeel; possible short forms are Rem and Remi.
