Gadriel
Meaning of Gadriel
Gadriel is a warm, melodious choice for parents who want a name that feels both timeless and fresh. Pronounced gad-ree-el (/ˈgædriːɛl/), it comes from Hebrew roots—“gad” meaning fortune or luck and “el” referring to God—so it carries the uplifting sense of “God is my good fortune.” Though still charmingly rare in the U.S. (just 12 newborns in 2024, up from seven the year before, ranking it 912th), its steady rise shows growing admiration for names that blend angelic resonance with a modern twist. Imagine calling out to your little one and hearing that soft roll of consonants and vowels, like a gentle breeze whispering promise. With its blend of ancient heritage and contemporary appeal, Gadriel invites a spark of divine luck into everyday life—an invitation that’s hard to resist.
