Abigal
Meaning of Abigal
Abigal—spelled with a charming skip of the e—is a streamlined cousin of the classic Abigail, a Hebrew name that translates to “my father’s joy,” and it still carries every ounce of that buoyant meaning. Rising out of the pages of the Old Testament, where the quick-witted Abigail became both peacemaker and queen, Abigal feels like the modern remix: familiar enough to be cozy, yet uncommon enough that your little one won’t share her name with half the playground. Nicknames such as Abi or Gail roll off the tongue, while the full sound—AB-ih-guhl—lands with the friendly confidence of a warm handshake. In U.S. birth stats, Abigal has been quietly fluttering around the lower end of the Top 1,000 for decades, proving she’s a hidden gem rather than a passing fad. If you’re hunting for a name that pairs biblical backbone with a dash of contemporary cool—and puts a smile on Dad’s face—Abigal might just be your perfect fit.
